Show Notes

The recent announcement of plans in Rogers for a 5,000-seat soccer stadium and two United Soccer League teams — men’s and women’s — sets the stage for Northwest Arkansas to enter the world of professional sports. In this week’s episode of Know the News, we speak with Devon Kerr, a television analyst for MLS soccer on Apple TV, for the USL and for NCAA soccer on ESPN about the league, what the teams mean for Northwest Arkansas and the other teams that might become rivalries for this region’s as-yet-unnamed men’s team.

Plus we preview coverage readers of the Democrat will see in this weekend’s editions.
