Description

This week on the NSCAA College Soccer Podcast, Dean Linke goes ‘deep’ with, perhaps, the most successful college coach – any sport – men or women – of all time. With 22 national championships to his name, and, who, knows, some more coming, Anson Dorrance is truly a living legend and he joins Dean Linke to talk about what it was like building that powerhouse and coaching the U.S. National Team. Anson also offers ‘pointed views’ on U.S. Soccer’s plan for player development and how they handled preparation for the Women’s Under World Cup. As always, Anson does not hold back. It’s a ‘can’t miss’ interview.

From there, Dean is joined by Soccer America editor-in-chief Paul Kennedy to talk Division I soccer and Top Drawer Soccer’s Travis Clark breaks down Division II soccer. Chad Waller gives us his weekly update on NAIA men’s and women’s soccer and Dean ends with a discussion with Erik Imler (three-time national champion at Virginia and 1992 U.S. Olympic Team member) about how youth coaches can better prepare young players (Under 12) for the college game.
