We Are Soccer

In this episode of We Are Soccer, Brooks sits down with Tori Christ, goalkeeper coach for Michigan State Women's Soccer, to talk about her journey through the game — from growing up in Amherst, NY, to playing at Cornell University, into the NWSL, and eventually overseas. Tori shares stories from every stop along the way, plus a look into her coaching career and what actually goes into training goalkeepers — and why it looks so different from training field players. Whether you're a keeper, a coach, or just love hearing how people found their path in soccer, this one's worth a listen.

Michigan State University senior forward Kennedy Bell sits down with Brooks to talk about her soccer journey. While playing for Charlotte Soccer Academy, Bell earned a spot at a U.S. U15 Girls National Team camp. She wouldn't get another call-up until May 2025, when she was a junior at Michigan State. Bell breaks down how her position has shifted over the years — starting as a forward, moving to right back, then transitioning back to forward after transferring to MSU from Maryland. It's a great watch for young soccer players, showing why it pays off to stay open to playing different positions and building a well-rounded game.
