The Canada Soccer Association is coming to Springfield.
It's all here.
Fast kicking, low scoring, and ties.
You bet.
Hi Helen, thanks for having me.
I'm very fortunate to have grown up in a rare sort of 1990s American soccer family.
My aunt was a goalkeeper who would often advance deep into state tournaments in Minnesota, but usually would run into shootouts and lose to Brianna Scurry, who went on to be the starting goalkeeper at the 1999 Women's World Cup.
And at that point, I vividly remember faces painted and everyone cheering for my aunt's old rival, who obviously then becomes a national and, frankly, international hero in her own right for her exploits against China in the shootout.
So just stuck with it from there and kind of harbored an interest, was able to follow along with the sparse sightings of Ferguson's United and Wenger's Arsenal throughout the 2000s, a little bit of Champions League, and then Major League Soccer picks up in earnest after David Beckham arrives, and it's a little easier to find something closer to home.
You know, I actually, it was funny.
I was more interested in the arts, the performing arts, the written arts.
And that was not part of my grades pack of interest.
Everyone was kind of disparate, but no one was really going into theater, speech, writing, all these sorts of things.
So I was already a little bit on the periphery.
And then when you throw in soccer, it's just like, okay, I'm just done.
I don't even know where to begin with this guy.
So it's very funny now, you know, reconnecting with classmates to your point.
And they're just like, you can do that.
That's the whole job is you just write about soccer.
And that's all you do.
