In this episode, Brian speaks with Joe Kirt, who is entering his second season as head coach of Tennessee women’s soccer.
In his first year at the helm, the Lady Vols claimed their third straight SEC East Division Championship, while finishing second overall in the league with 22 points. For the first time in program history, Tennessee went undefeated on the road against conference opposition before falling in the first rounds of the SEC and NCAA tournaments. But this year, the team has added 10 players and return to Regal Soccer Stadium with a taste for vengeance and silverware.
Listen for the latest updates on the Lady Vols roster and preseason preparation, a preview of the upcoming season, and what qualities and values Kirt believes will be important for the team to have a successful year.
