Sydney Leroux talks all things women's soccer and NWSL
Sydney Leroux stops by to break down women's soccer and tells us about her new partnership with ARDA, the Sharing Time Off Contest.
Sports Seriously
The United States Women's National Soccer Team is returning to the pitch this weekend with a friendly against the People's Republic of China.
There are a couple of changes to the lineup for the top-ranked Americans, as defenders Kerry Abello and Naomi Girma, plus midfielder Lo'eau LaBonta, were added to the 24-woman roster by coach Emma Hayes.
Three USWNT regulars will be out of action as Sophia Wilson and Mallory Swanson are expecting children in the next few months, and Trinity Rodman is still recovering from a back injury.
The team has four upcoming friendlies in the next month against Jamaica on June 3, two matches against Ireland (June 26, 29), and a July 2 match against Canada.
The USWNT is coming off a 2-1 loss on April 8 to Brazil, whom they beat in the Olympic gold medal match in Paris and in a friendly match on April 5, as Amanda Gutierres scored in stoppage time to secure the victory for Seleção.

What's Next For Nike's Stock?
CHONGQING, CHINA - JUNE 16: A double-level Nike store is seen inside a shopping mall on June 16, ... More 2025 in Chongqing, China. (Photo by) Nike (NYSE: NKE) stock has increased by over 20% in the past five days; however, it still remains down 5% year-to-date, trailing the S&P 500's 4% rise. The company disclosed fourth-quarter earnings that exceeded expectations — revenue fell by 12% to $11.1 billion, surpassing analyst estimates. Net income dropped 86% to $211 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to $1.5 billion ($0.99 per share) the previous year—but still outperformed predictions. Investors harbor a sense of cautious optimism that the most challenging times may be behind the sportswear titan as it navigates through a tough turnaround. However, if you're seeking an upside with a smoother experience than picking an individual stock, you might want to consider the High Quality Portfolio, which has outperformed the S&P and achieved returns greater than 91% since inception. Also, check out – Cyngn Stock: Should You Buy The Nvidia Hype? A Tough Year in the Rearview For fiscal 2025, Nike reported total revenue of $46.3 billion, a 10% decline, and net income of $3.2 billion, representing a 44% decrease from the previous year. Revenue for the Nike Brand fell 9% to $44.7 billion, with reductions across all regions. Digital sales suffered particularly, plummeting 20% as Nike attempted to rebalance its direct-to-consumer approach. At the same time, wholesale revenue dropped 9%, although Nike-owned physical outlets remained stable. Nike's profit margins were affected as it resorted to discounting and clearance sales to manage excess inventory. This, combined with a return to lower-margin wholesale channels, put pressure on profitability. The Road Ahead: A Strategic Reset Nike has not provided full-year guidance for fiscal 2026 but has laid out plans to realign its operations around key sports categories, streamline the supply chain, and rejuvenate product storytelling. Tariffs are projected to raise costs by approximately $1 billion this year — a challenge Nike seeks to mitigate through pricing strategies, sourcing adjustments, and operational efficiencies. Importantly, the company plans to reduce its reliance on the China-based supply chain from 16% to the high single digits by the end of the year. In the short term, Nike anticipates a decrease in Q1 sales by a mid-single-digit percentage, with gross margin compression ranging from 3.5 to 4.25 percentage points, including a 1-point impact from tariffs. Revenue for the current first quarter is expected to decline by a mid-single-digit percentage, which marks a considerable improvement from recent double-digit drops. Valuation: Opportunity or Value Trap? At around $72 per share, Nike is trading at roughly 41 times its projected 2026 earnings — a significant premium compared to its three-year average of 28 times. Consensus forecasts predict a 1% revenue decline in FY 2026, followed by a possible rebound with 5% growth in FY 2027. The investment perspective now hinges entirely on the effectiveness of Nike's turnaround initiatives. If management is unable to stabilize margins and reignite top-line growth, the present valuation may turn out to be unsustainable. Downturn Risk: Not a Defensive Play Nike has demonstrated clear susceptibility during previous market downturns. In 2020, shares fell nearly 40% within a few quarters, and during the 2022 inflation-driven decline, the stock experienced a 53% peak-to-trough drop — which was substantially worse than the S&P 500. Should macroeconomic conditions weaken once more, Nike could face further downside risk. A 50% decrease from current levels would lower the stock to approximately $35 — a feasible scenario for a company with high volatility and cyclical earnings. Bottom Line Nike is at a pivotal moment. It's exhibiting early signs of stabilization but continues to confront margin pressures, macro risks, and valuation concerns. Although its brand remains robust and its long-term strategy appears promising, effective execution will be crucial. As with any investment, it's important to carefully assess the advantages and disadvantages and consider diversified alternatives to mitigate risk. The Trefis High-Quality portfolio, featuring a collection of 30 stocks, boasts a history of comfortable outperformance compared to the S&P 500 over the last four years. What accounts for this? As a cohort, HQ Portfolio stocks have delivered superior returns with reduced risk compared to the benchmark index, with less market turbulence, as illustrated by HQ Portfolio performance metrics.

How to watch the USWNT vs. Ireland on Sunday, their second friendly this week
Rose Lavelle is back on the pitch, and she now gets to show out for her home city. The USWNT plays the second of its two friendlies with the Republic of Ireland on Sunday afternoon. Even with changes coming to the lineup, the Americans should be in good form on the heels of Thursday's 4-0 result. Avery Patterson scored her first international goal with a brilliant header, assisted by Lavelle in the 18th minute. Mainstay scorer Sam Coffey made it 2-0 off her left foot, and Lavelle found the back of the net in style early into the second half. Agreeable vibes all around. Then, this: brb watching this Alyssa Thompson goal on repeat #USWNT x @VW — U.S. Women's National Soccer Team (@USWNT) June 27, 2025 This was some video game work from Alyssa Thompson in the 63rd. She looked like she was playing FC25 against a beleaguered child or a sleepy kitten. Lilly Reale was credited with the assist in her first USWNT cap. The Americans almost scored a fifth goal at the end of the match, when 19-year-old call-up Olivia Moultrie launched a fearless shot from long distance and hit the crossbar. Advertisement The four goal scorers represent four different NWSL teams (Patterson for the Houston Dash, Coffey for the Portland Thorns, Lavelle for Gotham FC and Thompson for Angel City FC). Claudia Dickey notched a shutout on the other end, though she didn't face a single shot on target. Ireland has just one goal in 16 meetings with the United States. More than 18,000 fans were in attendance at the Colorado friendly, and Sunday's second leg should be just as crowded for Lavelle's homecoming. 2015: 'Abby Wambach scored twice as the United States defeated Ireland, 3-0, on Sunday in an exhibition match in preparation for the Women's World Cup. A goal by defender Julie Johnston extended her scoring streak to three straight matches. It was the fifth straight shutout for the Americans, and it was Hope Solo's 83rd in her career with the United States. Wambach added to her career scoring record of 180 goals. Sunday's match was her 44th with multiple goals.' 2003: 'Julie Foudy had a goal and two assists, and Abby Wambach scored her first two goals of the season to lead the United States to a 5-0 victory over Ireland last night in an exhibition match in Salt Lake City. Mia Hamm, who came in as a substitute in the second half, also scored for the United States, which will have three more tuneups before the World Cup this fall. Heather O'Reilly also scored.'
