Philly’s Hometown Ref Blowing The Whistle at March Madness
Natasha Camy, who grew up in West Philly, is a NCAA Division 1 women’s basketball referee who keeps things cool on the court – and leans on her Bible for support as she criss-crosses the country. She’s also a childhood friend of our host, Trenae Nuri, and so just before March Madness the two old friends sat down to talk about Natasha’s journey to the height of her profession – and her venture as the co-founder of Referee Ready Development Academy.
