Looking ahead to Minnesota's pre-professional women's soccer season with Rochester Loons

from Minnesota Now · host Minnesota Public Radio

It’s a good time to be a women’s sports fan in Minnesota. In basketball, Lynx season is underway. In Rugby, Twin Cities Gemini won their first game Sunday. On Thursday there’s a match between the state’s two women’s pre-professional soccer teams. It’s the home opener for Minnesota Aurora and the first game of the season for the Rochester FC Loons. Rochester Coach Eric Feil and team captain Rachel Jackson joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about how the team has evolved since it launched a few seasons ago.
