#1 women's soccer defender in the world
The Boston Globe has a front-page sports page profile on Laura Georges - a student and soccer player at Boston College who is one of the top players in the world. She's from France and also plays for the French national women's team. I like blurb in particular form the piece:
"BC is a solid team with quality players in a premium league, the Atlantic Coast Conference. But it's no soccer superpower. And Georges is ignored in a city that develops a rash when presented with anything other than the four traditional American team sports."
That final sentence really sums up nicely sports coverage in this city (the word men's should be inserted in there), so it was nice to see this profile get big play.
