What’s up, Internet? On this week’s episode of Last Word Soccer Club Radio, Rachael Kriger and Dan Sperry get together to chat all things NWSL, ahead of the 2023 season. The new season kicks off on March 25.<\/p>\n
Rachael and Dan split the teams and break down all 12 sides, highlighting key players to watch and the eye-turning moves of the offseason. Dan talks about why everyone wants to join the Kansas City Current and Rachael tells listeners why they should believe in the Orlando Pride and Racing Louisville.<\/p>\n
Later, the two break down their way-too-early NWSL end of the season awards, including MVP and Coach of the Year, while also giving their picks for who will make the playoffs.<\/p>\n
For last words, Dan and Rachael encourage fans to check out their local NWSL teams, and potentially travel for a game or two. Enjoy the NWSL season, fans. We know that we will!<\/p>\n

When he\u2019s not watching soccer or at work, the Colorado transplant enjoys skiing and hiking all over the state. The LA Kings will always be his first sports love, though MLS didn\u2019t exist at the time. Once called the Shakespeare of LWOS, he covers the LA Galaxy and Colorado Rapids. Like the Galaxy, he too was handcrafted in LA.<\/p>\n Rachael Kriger<\/a> is a Senior Editor at Last Word on Soccer. She is the lead writer for the Seattle Sounders, U.S. Women\u2019s National Team and NWSL. Hailing from Moscow, Russia, she resides in Ocala, Florida, where she is a youth minister. Rachael is a big fan of her home country\u2019s national teams and cried when Russia beat Spain in the World Cup Round of 16. However, Rachael has to admit that basketball was her first love and still keeps in contact with that sport through coaching.<\/p>\n Daniel Sperry<\/a> is an Editor at Last Word on Soccer. He covers mainly Sporting KC and U.S. Soccer for LWOS and discusses San Francisco Giants baseball elsewhere<\/a>. He was born and raised in Northern California, hence his love for Bay Area teams. He currently resides in the KC Suburbs with his incredible wife and energetic puppy. Outside of sports and writing, he loves a good stout and nature, whether that is hiking, camping, canoeing, birding, or some activity with all four.<\/p>\nAbout the Hosts:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
