“I have played for gold medals, I have played for championships, and nothing compares to the nervousness that I feel right now,” Cash said during an ESPN interview before her photo shoot.

Cash said she was nervous but excited to step out and redefine herself.

“As women, why should we have limitations? Why should I just be limited to only being an athlete?” Cash told ESPN. “I’m breaking out of all those boxes that people tend to put athletes in.”

An All-American NCAA athlete, Cash played for UConn from 1998 to 2002, when she was named the Final Four Most Outstanding Player.

During her time at UConn, Cash led the lady Huskies to national titles in 2000 and 2002.

As the number-two WNBA draft pick, she went on to play for the Detroit Shock, taking home the 2003 WNBA Championship. That year, Cash also played in the WNBA All-Star game.
