#USWNT Reveals Its Gameday Playlist
#USWNT Reveals Its Gameday Playlist
Ask any athlete across any sport what their pre-match gameday routine is, and most would give a similar answer: listening to their favorite music. It’s no different on the U.S. Women’s National Team, who like to throw their own playlist on the speakers of any locker room they’re in across the world.
Lauren Holiday is in charge of the #USWNT playlist and she's held the position for as long as she can remember. Holiday really enjoyed it in the beginning because she had her finger on the pulse of the music scene in the U.S. But she's hoping to pass the torch soon, and thinks Crystal Dunn will be the next player to choose the team’s pre-match music.
Initially, the Gameday Playlist was going to have one song from every player, but only three team members are regular contributors: Meghan Klingenberg, Ali Krieger and Kelley O'Hara. Holiday determines the rest of the playlist and assembles the order of songs to be played each game day.
