Herstory WNY aims to preserve and amplify the rich history of girls and women’s sports in Western New York through an oral history archive. This project will capture interviews with athletes, coaches, and administrators, sharing the experiences of the women who impacted the regional sports landscape. Herstory WNY will provide cultural context by filling a critical gap in the history of women’s sports, ensuring that these voices are not lost but celebrated for their role in shaping access and opportunity in sports while inspiring future generations of athletes.
We're excited to help women tell their sports stories as part of this oral history project. Please use this form to provide background and contact information as we prepare to interview women across the eight counties of Western New York to record, preserve, and share their athletic experiences.
Once your interview is schedule, you will receive a list of questions to prepare for the conversation. Have questions? Please feel free to reach out to Amy Moritz at amoritz@sbu.edu
