The Pathway to Texas & USYNT with Mateya Dessieux • #82

Knox Soccer Podcast

In this very special episode, Brian chats with Farragut-born goalkeeper Mateya Dessieux, a University of Texas commitment and member of the US women’s national team under-17 pool.

Mateya’s story takes her three hours from home, where her father, Luc, traveled twice a week with her since her freshman year at Farragut so she could compete with Tophat Soccer Club, one of the best in the United States.

Besides being an incredible player, Mateya is a testament to what you can accomplish when committing to the dream. She’s also extending her love for the game to young kids as a coach for One Knoxville SC’s Monsters program. You don’t want to miss this one!
