2022 was a busy year for American soccer, and we’ve been having all of our writers on to talk about their favorite stories they worked on this year.
A bit of a bonus episode, it’s a rebroadcast because I want to make sure people read this piece if they haven’t Pablo Maurer and Matt Pentz worked for over a year to tell the story of Wee Willie McLean, a player on the United States’ 1934 World Cup team who went missing…until Pablo and Matt tracked down his entire life story.
That description is selling it very short, definitely go read the piece. And if you still need convincing, here’s a rebroadcast of a conversation Matt and Pablo had with the Society for American Soccer History about the story, earlier this year.
