Screen Shot 2016-07-29 at 1.14.58 PM

Every four years, the summer Olympics roll around and we all get caught up in the games. Maybe it’s because we love the artistry of sports like gymnastics or maybe it’s because we want to ogle the hot dudes competing at the top of their sport. Whatever the reason you watch the games, obviously we’re all rooting for Team USA. But as a little extra incentive to cheer for our Olympic athletes, here are the women on the team that are also on the same team as all of us – Team Sorority, that is.

Jenna used to be known as 2NOTBrokeGirls, but then one of the girls actually went broke, so she's struck out on her own. Jenna spends her free time saving the world, one sorority girl at a time (usually while wearing yoga pants), questioning why she decided to get a doctorate, and documenting her love of all things cheese related. You can ask her anything you want about football, using your boobs to get what you want, and pizza at @JennaLCrowley on Twitter or via email at [email protected].
