What's up, Lady Valors? Welcome back. We're Sakura Props and it's game time.

All right. Welcome back to the Sakura Props podcast, guys. And we have a very special guest today, Danny Collaprico.

She's actually from New Jersey. So I feel like we're already kind of friends, right?

She's a neighbor on the East Coast.

And Danny has played in the end of his cell. She's on the Chicago Red Stars right now.

She's played overseas in Australia. She's played on in a few of the US and national team games.

And we're really excited to hear her, her story, her journey. Enjoy.

Hi. Hi.

Thanks for coming on.

Of course, this will be fun.

Are you in Jersey right now? Where are you?

I actually got, I just got back to Chicago, like probably six days ago.

I had to quarantine before because we have optional trainings right now.

Optional.

Every time I'm like, why don't you just tell us the comments?

And then they always put at the end of the email. They're like, these are not mandatory, but highly recommended.

So you're not going to play that's such a classic. I feel like growing up and even in college, it was always optional.

And if you didn't show up, it was like you were shaved.

And you know what's funny is that like, I like really think about it. I'm like, okay.

If I didn't come into the start date, which is February 1st.

I don't necessarily think that like the coaches would be like, oh, like we can't like play Danny.

Yeah.
