About

I am a senior at Northern Arizona University, focusing my studies in Parks and Recreation Management with an emphasis in Outdoor Leadership. While that has nothing to do with writing, I have held a passion for soccer since an early age, and have followed the US Women's national team for at least a decade. An avid fan, I was an intense follower of the WUSA until its folding in 2003, and now the WPS.

This is my first job writing for a blog, and I am loving it already! I relish the challenge of writing and welcome the chance to do something more for the league that has done so much for me and for the United States.

    Hey Lauren, I've started up a blog devoted to women's soccer and I was wondering if I could link your article about yesterday's match to the site. It can be found at http:/allwhitekit.wordpress.com.

    Thanks much,
