Manya Makoski Puppione is a former professional player and current college soccer coach. Days after recording this episode, Marymount University announced that Manya will be the next women’s soccer head coach. We didn’t get a chance to talk about that, but we did have a great conversation.

We discussed:

• What type of mentality it requires to go far in this sport as a player
• How to manage a team full of players that all have different goals and expectations
• Her ideas on developing the whole player, not just the soccer player

Fun fact, Manya’s husband Bobby is a 3four3 premium coaching member.
