Exploring the Collegiate Women's Soccer Landscape with Ashley Martin and Lorena Lopez, Flagler College

In today's episode of Down to the Roots, we return to our exploration of the women's game, this time looking at the collegiate soccer landscape.  This is the first in a series where we will look at the various divisions in collegiate soccer and how they are all related.  The series begins with a look at NCAA Division 2  with Ashley Martin, Head Coach for Flagler College about what it's like to build a successful program, differences between the men's and women's games that he experienced as a coach and player, and other insights.  To get a player perspective, Coach Martin was joined by Lorena Lopez, a senior midfielder and defender who came through the IMG Academy in Bradenton and the youth soccer system in Mexico where she participated at the U17 level with her country in a Women's Cup in 2013 in Costa Rica.
