Stevens Athletics To Celebrate National Girls And Women In Sports Day

Hoboken, N.J. – The Stevens Institute of Technology Department of Athletics will celebrate the annual National Girls & Women in Sports Day (NGWSD) when the women's and men's basketball teams host Misericordia at Canavan Arena on Saturday, February 7, 2026. 

Prior to the men's game at 1 p.m., Stevens Athletics will host a pregame clinic featuring instruction in multiple sports from 11:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. The event will mark the 10th such event at Stevens.

Now in its 40th year of existence, the NGWSD honors the many ways that sports push girls and women to achieve excellence and realize their boundless potential. The Women's Sports Foundation, who sponsors National Girls & Women in Sports Day, applauds the vital role played by the individuals and organizations championing girls and women in sports, advocates seeking to protect Title IX and advance gender equality, athletes using their powerful platform to inspire greatness, and coaches working daily to unlock girls' limitless capabilities. The confidence, strength and character gained through sports participation are the very tools girls and women need to become strong leaders in sports and life. A vibrant movement that's celebrated annually, NGWSD honors the achievements of girls and women in sports and continues to Lead Her Forward by acknowledging the power of sports to unlock her limitless potential.
