Sportsmanship is in the spotlight as Julie and Abby bring the party to one of the biggest issues in youth sports: us grown-ups. They share powerful moments of real sportsmanship, swap hilarious sideline stories, and address one of the most important issues in youth sports, parents behavior. Plus, NCAA insider Jordan Robinson kicks off our new segment Party Buzz with the dish on college hoops — from Texas women’s basketball getting their flowers to why LSU has posted eight straight 100-plus games to an unexpected name on the U.S. National Team. roster drop. You don’t want to miss this party!
