While I’ve been covering college soccer for five seasons, this year marked the first time I’ve covered the College Cup in person. There’s just something to the championship atmosphere that you can only capture if you’re actually on site.
Akron took home the trophy, capping a championship that was years in the making. While Louisville finished runner-up in the 1-0 game, the Cardinals are clearly a team on the verge.

As I’ve said before, I really enjoy covering college soccer. And I especially enjoyed getting to cover the NCAA tournament in Santa Barbara, Calif., where it was 80 degrees while the temperature was hovering around 20 in Boston.
