This summer the US National Team is competing in the World Cup in France. Susie covers soccer for Sounder at Heart and co-hosts Coffee & Valkyries, a Reign FC focused podcast on the Sounder at Heart Podcast Network. Jake is the VP of the Royal Guard, the supporters group for Reign FC (you’ll notice Jake stans hard for England).
We wanted to get the skinny on the National Team and some of the top players in the tournament. We discussed the most likely to advance teams in each group, players from the NWSL (our domestic league) to watch, and we made the guests put on their prognostication hats and predict who’ll advance to the finals.
Look for more Channel 253 coverage of the Women’s World Cup with an episode in from Paris with the Flounders B-Team later this month. And as promised the South African Team entrance into their opening match.
Guests:
Susie Rantz, Sounder at Heart
Jocelyn Jake Houghton, Royal Guard
Coming Soon:
