Riverdale Review: How long have you been playing your sport?  Claire Van Praagh: I have been rowing for five years. RR: What’s your favorite thing about your sport? Favorite memory? CVP: I think my favorite memory would be winning the world championships this past summer. I competed at the U-19 World Championships in St. Catharines, Canada. It was a great experience and my favorite thing about the sport would be the tight-knit community that I found within my sport.

As a collision sport, football is inherently dangerous. The risk of concussions for high school players is a real fear, and at the end of 2018, Riverdale’s Head of Athletics John Pizzi knew something had to change. “We saw all these injuries at the end of the 2018 season and a lot of them [were] concussions,” said Mr. Pizzi. Prioritizing the safety of Riverdale students, Mr. Pizzi approached the Concussion Legacy Foundation (CLF), a non-profit organization focused on preventing concussions.

When asked to name any college athlete, over 90% (46/50) of Riverdale students named a female athlete: Caitlin Clark. Throughout her four college seasons at Iowa, Clark became the most  influential athlete in women’s college basketball; however, this year truly marks a shift in the way all of women’s sports are perceived by audiences. According to NCAA.org, the No. 1 seed game between Iowa and South Carolina drew more viewers than the men’s championship game for the first time in history.
