KC Current's Izzy Rodriguez Dishes on Contract Extension, USWNT Debut, Crime Shows & More
Description
It's been quite the summer for KC Current defender Izzy Rodriguez! First, she earned her first cap, first start and first goal for the USWNT on the same day. Then she signed a 3-year contract extension with the KC Current, the franchise she has been with since she was drafted in 2022. Izzy is known as one of the best teammates in the league, a true student of the game, and relentless defender. Today we dive in to:
- Why signing a 3-year contract extension with KC Current was an obvious and exciting choice
- How she defines and experiences the "championship environment" the team has created
- The importance of collective buy-in and individual moments of brilliance for team success
- Mindset approach for each NWSL game as they sit at the top of standings
- USWNT debut -- first cap, first start, first goal
- Value of exploring multiple sports as a kid
- Hobbies off the pitch (S/O fellow Crime Junkies)
