It was like 292 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 4: a constant battle. But you know, I think if we 293 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 4: were both forwards, it'd be a competition of like who 294 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: could go the most goals or you know, if we're 295 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 4: on defense, most tackles or whatever. But I would say, 296 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 4: like we were like the og dynamic duo and you know, 297 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 4: everything we did because we're so different. Shockingly, she was 298 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 4: a defensive minded player, like just winning every single header, 299 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 4: every single tackle, and she was a holy midfielder in college. 300 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: And every time I passed her, I was like, you know, 301 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: I just felt her like running down my back. I 302 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 4: was like, oh my gosh, like I got to read 303 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 4: the ball, she's gonna kill me. But yeah, like in 304 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 4: high school and in club, like she would always like 305 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 4: get give me the assist.

So yeah, Like we were very, very very 308 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 4: competitive on our respective teams, but I think like we 309 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 4: made each other better. 310 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, you both got drafted 311 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: on the very same day, the first set of sisters 312 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: to be drafted in the same year in NWSL history. 313 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: You went number seven, she went number forty four.

I was very 354 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 4: proud of her and like myself too, But that was 355 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 4: like a really, really, really cool moment. 356 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 5: But I just wish that she would have spent it, you. 357 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,479 Speaker 1: Know, but maybe not disappointing then because it was like 358 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: above and beyond what she expected, so it allowed for 359 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: it to be really exciting. Yeah, you know, you actually 360 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 1: went to the Chicago Color Neutral Stars. You played in 361 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: the team's NWSL attendance record breaking game at Wrigley Field. 362 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: I was there. Would have been nice if it was 363 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: this weather, but we all powered through the rain. You 364 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: scored a goal and it was actually against visiting BFC, 365 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 1: which is kind of funny but perhaps the coolest stat 366 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: and weirdest stat ever. You and your baseball playing dad 367 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: both scored at Wrigley Field and we leave. 368 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 2: It's the first father daughter duo ever to do. 369 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 1: So did you go into the game knowing your dad 370 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: had scored a round or gotten a hit or whatever 371 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: it is there and you were like, okay, I got 372 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: to match that. 373 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. 374 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 4: My dad like right when I'm about to walk into 375 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 4: the stadium, he's like, oh, I scored here, so no pressure, 376 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 4: And I was like, are you kidding me? 377 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 5: Right now? 378 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 4: And I felt like it was like my purse. It's 379 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 4: like every time I step into a game as a forward, 380 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 4: you're like, I want to score, and like I always 381 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 4: want to go to a goal. So like that was 382 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 4: still there, but there was like an extra added pressure 383 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 4: and it was like the very end of the game, 384 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 4: and I was like feeling like a little bit of 385 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 4: like disappointment. It was to zero and there was probably 386 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 4: like five minutes left. We're already stoppage time, and the 387 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 4: ball just like comes to me in the eighteen yard 388 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 4: box and like just finished it.
