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 <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/galaxy\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LA Galaxy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/rapids\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Colorado Rapids<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/usl\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saint Louis FC<\/a>.

Hailing from Moscow, Russia, she resides in Pittsburgh, Pa., home to the Riverhounds. 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<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/author\/daniel-sperry\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Daniel Sperry<\/a> is an Editor at Last Word on Soccer.
