Description

Growing up in Southern California, Sky Rodriguez was more in touch with her Mexican side than her Puerto Rican side. But that all changed in college, when she got the opportunity to play with the Puerto Rican women's national team. Since then, she's been an ambassador to help grow the sport in the country, and continues to spread the love for the game across the island. She joins the latest episode of the Urban Pitch Podcast to discuss her journey with the national team, the various club teams she's played for, and the increased opportunities for professional women's soccer across North America.
