While at FNTSY Sports network, one of her many gigs, she hosted a daily mini show focusing on the WNBA and women’s basketball. While at Sirius XM, she included the league in her radio updates. Her next goal at SNY is to cover theNCAA Women’s Final Four in 2022. “Getting to cover UConn women’s basketball for SNY is a huge outlet for me because I personally feel very strongly about lack of coverage of women’s sports across the board,” Marino says. “I’m just trying anything I can to educate, to promote and to share women’s sports stories and (raise) the level of respect, and have that be equal to that of men’s sports.” [/QUOTE]
