UC Irvine Head Coach Scott Juniper + FSU Star Jenna Nighswonger Chat About Their Programs and Preview Their Seasons + NCAA Season Preview + NWSL Roundup + Ballon D'Or Nominees

Episode 52 features two special interviews, the first is UC Irvine Head Coach, Scott Juniper who has been a staple of the program for 15 years. He chats about how his program looks to build on the biggest upset in NCAA Tournament history over UCLA and one of the best seasons in school history. Second is Florida State star Jenna Nighswonger, the versatile midfielder who finally will get the chance to play in a center attacking midfield role, and she discusses how things are slightly different with Brian Pensky at the helm, along with what her career aspirations are and what she's been doing to improve. Host Rohtas Wadera then previews the NCAA Season of possible top 10 teams followed by an NWSL roundup and a discussion of Ballon D'Or Nominees.

Correction: Our host mentioned there were only two American nominees for the Ballon D'Or. But there are three total, Alex Morgan, Trinity Rodman, and Catarina Macario.
