A Gap in Representation

Black female athletes are concentrated in basketball and track at the collegiate level, but they are barely represented in many other sports.

Notes: Sports with fewer than 1,000 athletes are not shown. Figures may not add up to 100% because of rounding. “Other” includes the following categories in the N.C.A.A.’s data: American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Hispanic/Latino, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, people who identify with more than one category, people who are not U.S. citizens or nationals and people whose race or ethnicity is unknown.
