Grant has a fascinating interview with Brianna Pinto of the University of North Carolina, who's on the verge of breaking into the senior USWNT pool, and Nick Mayhugh of the U.S. Para 7-a-side team about their recent election to the powerful Athlete Council of U.S. Soccer. They were joined on a ticket called Next Gen United (average age: 22) by Smith Hunter, currently at Harvard and a member of the U.S. U20 women’s team; Mikey López of the Birmingham Legion in the USL and former men’s YNT player; and Matt Freese of the Philadelphia Union. All five of them won spots on the Athlete Council, which swung the U.S. Soccer presidential election in 2018 for Carlos Cordeiro. Pinto and Mayhugh explain why they wanted to run for the Athlete Council, Next Gen United's platform and how they all managed to win seats.
