Hustle and Pro - Frisco's Sports Podcast HUSTLE AND PRO

Episode 190 – Antonio Carrera will tell you it’s faith, family, and soccer, in that order. He leads with love and gives his all on the field. From being the 33rd homegrown for FC Dallas and growing up through the system starting at age 10, to getting a lot of international experience already in his young career, he’s on ‘a linear path of growth’. They call him The Wall for a good reason. Listen to Toño talk about this family, teammates, and more in this episode of Hustle & Pro.

Episode 186 – Local League Hopefuls | The East-West Shrine Bowl is basically a job interview for the NFL. Players get the opportunity to get in front of league reps and agents for the days leading up to the Shrine Bowl with the ultimate goal of getting drafted into the National Football League. Since the Shrine Bowl was in Frisco for the first time in 2024, we decided to go find a few local players. We talked to Ryan Watts, Tyler Owens, and Willis Patrick about their football careers so far and where they hope to go from here.

Episode 185 – Trey Taylor We take a break during Shrine Bowl week to talk to Frisco’s own Trey Taylor about football and family. Playing high school football for Lone Star High School, Trey is no stranger to playing at The Star. Maybe it gives him a slight advantage for this week – one of the most important, life-changing times of his life. There are 500 NFL scouts and reps in Frisco during the week leading up to the East-West Shrine Bowl. It’s a weeklong interview to play in the NFL.
