Listen "NWSL Kickoff Brings Goals, Growth, and Game Changers"
Episode Synopsis
The 2025 NWSL season is off to a historic start, and we’re breaking it all down! This week, I’m joined by Piedmont women’s soccer player and mass and sports communication double major Sydney Spitzer. We dive into all the biggest moments from opening weekend, including Orlando Pride’s dominant 6-0 shutout over Chicago, setting a new record for most goals scored in an opener. Plus, 14-year-old McKenna Whitham made history as the youngest NWSL player ever when she subbed in for Gotham FC. We also take a look at the game-changing plans for Denver’s NWSL team, including a 14,500-seat stadium and record-breaking season ticket deposits. In our interview, Sydney shares her passion for women’s soccer, her career goals, and her take on NWSL expansion. Just like my last guest, Paige Kluba, she thinks Atlanta should be next in line for a team—so maybe they’re onto something!
