Two cycles ago Tim Weah, Sergino Dest and Josh Sargent led the U17 men's national team. One cycle ago it was Gio Reyna and Ricardo Pepi. A new U17 cycle is upon us and Matt Hartman joins the podcast to talk through the roster for the Concacaf championship, which serves as U17 World Cup qualifying and starts Saturday. Now it's Cruz Medina and Oscar Verhoeven, Pedro Soma and Keyrol Figueroa who we'll be watching. Let's see! Let's go!

More oral history than a typical podcast episode. Mankamyer was a real estate broker and youth soccer volunteer in Colorado who rose through the ranks of U.S. Soccer governance in the 1980s and was a key actor in promoting girls' youth soccer, the creation of a women's national team, and the addition of women's soccer as an Olympic sport in Atlanta in 1996. She also worked with and against Werner Fricker, and helped Alan Rothenberg get elected as president.

No big winners from January Camp! Except perhaps Zendejas. Greg and Belz were morally obligated to recap this soccer match, but we did find some things to discuss.

Paul Arriola is gonna hit 50 caps tonight, most likely. He sat down with Sanjay Sujanthakumar yesterday to discuss how a cancer doctor helped persuade him to make his return to the national team for the camp he's in now. Plus a detailed discussion of how he learned he wouldn't be going to the World Cup, how he came up in southern California, his signing with Tijuana as a youngster and who brought the best party vibes at his wedding.

Big shout to Joey in Hershey for help with the audio.

Vince, Tara and Belz convene to pick through the performances in the most recent camp. Agendas grow and converge, and new ones come to life. How good is Sanchez? How good is Kornieck? When is Cat coming back? Where is Sam Coffey? How hard is it to learn Mallory's new last name? Lots to discuss. Join us.

A better performance from the USWNT, the real test comes in February. Greg and Belz talk it through, including that lovely sequence for Hatch's opener.

The USWNT started its two-legged series with New Zealand on Tuesday, and finishes it on Friday. Greg and Belz talk a lot about crossing, and not combining or moving off the ball very well in the middle of the park, but also get to detail some lovely goals. At the end we briefly discuss the January Camp roster.
