​We're a couple weeks into the D1 Soccer Season, so I figured we can try to recap the HUGE list of Minnesotans playing around the country. As the season progresses, we keep finding more and more players on twitter or by your submission. Thank you! Our first Minnesotan Playing D1 interview was this last week, as I was joined by Meredith Haakenson of the Michigan Wolverines. Meredith was 4 times All State, 2 time Gatorade Player of the Year for Minnesota, and has since been an All Big Ten performer. Check out the interview with Meredith below, and then catch up on all of your Minnesotans making waves in D1!

​Final Shout Out goes to Big East Defensive Player of the Week, Megan Malecha. Megan and fellow Minnesotan Morgan Turner are Standouts at DePaul

​Matt sits down with Gopher Soccer Captain Delaney Stekr to talk about leading an almost entirely rebuilt back line, how the team has responded to new head coach Erin Chastain, her willingness to speak up for social justice, and a return of The Internet Said It where Laney confirms or denies her journalism almost-championship and her writing and modeling careers.
