We are so excited to unveil another element of The Texas Smoke story. About a year ago, Zilker Media had the opportunity to work with The Texas Smoke front office, The Community Factory (Nicole Osibodu, XOXO and Liz Lathan, CMP), Left Right Productions, and ESPN+ to capture the electrifying moments of The Texas Smoke's inaugural tryouts and spring training. This groundbreaking "making the team" process shattered norms in the world of pro softball, thanks to the visionary leadership of team owner & MLB star Brandon Phillips. Today, we're beyond thrilled to share that the Texas Smoke episode is officially available for streaming exclusively on the ESPN+ app! This episode beautifully encapsulates the unwavering dedication of the players, owners, front office, and staff as they relentlessly pursue their mission to bring new standards to women's professional sports. A massive shout-out to the incredible Left/Right production team, The Community Factory, Concordia University at Austin, The Crossover, WOMEN'S PROFESSIONAL FASTPITCH, L.L.C. and Lodgewell for making our filming experience so seamless! Witnessing the birth of a team, a brand, and a mission has been a thrill! Our lead publicists for The Texas Smoke, Shelby Janner and Reagan Lamp, have done a phenomenal job in sharing the story and the highs of the WPF champion's inaugural season through media, and we can hardly contain our excitement for everyone to experience the magic of The Texas Smoke through this captivating episode! https://lnkd.in/ge2zjbSr
