Caroline Szwed No Longer With Sportsnet
Caroline Szwed has announced that she's left Sportsnet. Although she didn't share specifics, she did reference her car accident of September 2019 as a contributing factor.
Hey guys, I just wanted to jump on here and give you a heads up that earlier this week was my last day with Sportsnet. Since my accident, a lot of things have not been the same and I have unfortunately made the decision to move on from the Sportsnet community. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/XPQR3lRG3W

In September of 2019, Caroline was involved in a car accident she describes in the Tweet below.

Earlier that year, in February of 2019, Caroline dropped by my home studio for a great chat about her NCAA soccer career, joining Sportsnet and hosting Plays of the Month, Misplays of the Month and Aftermath, and her beloved dog Cash. You can hear it below:
Despite what you might read online, Caroline did not succumb to her injuries sustained in that car accident in September 2019. I've received messages from people who saw the below post on Facebook and worried that Caroline Szwed was dead. I'm pleased to report she's very much alive and I'm looking forward to seeing what's next for her in her professional life.
