    USL vs. NWSL, Getting Better in the Dark & Building What’s Next | Give N’ Go Ep. 97

    There is A LOT happening in women’s soccer right now — and Episode 97 gets into plenty of it. Sam gives us a look at her new season with DC Power FC and the USL Super League, including what she’s learning in a fast, physical 14-game season and what feels different from her experience in the NWSL. We also talk with Dr. Ashley Comer-Fontez, former Florida State standout and Washington Spirit COO, who is building something pretty special in Tallahassee with the Tallahassee Reckoning — creating more opportunities for players to develop and potentially stay closer to home. And then there’s Samantha Johnson, GM of Brooklyn FC, who takes us behind the scenes of building a team, changing its identity and turning things around. She has some really interesting thoughts on where the league is headed — and why anyone can win. Plus, Rohtas and Sam get into the latest around the women’s game, including the NWSL, USL Super League, player movement and a little Ted Lasso, because naturally we have to go there. 😉 Another fun one with a lot of good conversations about where women’s soccer is going — and, more importantly, the people helping build it. #GiveNGo #WomensSoccer #USLSuperLeague #NWSL #GirlsSoccerNetwork
