Sweet Shot by A-Rod

On a sweltering 100-degree day, USC forward Amy Rodriguez pounded a shot into the top of the net during an Olympic tuneup for the U.S. women's national soccer team. It was her second game-winning goal against Brazil this year. The United States is currently the world's top-ranked squad, with Brazil fourth in the FIFA standings.

Before the game, Rodriguez was interviewed about her wild ride on 101Soccer.com -- a site run by a number of USC alums, including interviewer Danny Page. Click here for the audio.

Adam Rose learned about the highs and lows of USC athletics while going to school. As a freshman, he watched the football team crash to the bottom of the Pac 10. By the time he was a senior, he was in the stands for a National Championship. In between, he liked to argue points as a member of the Trojan Debate Squad. Nowadays, he's just looking to tell a good story. He is currently Sports Editor for LAist, where he covers a wide range of local action. He can also be seen weekly on KNBC 4's News Raw. Adam manages special events in the sports community when he isn't participating himself (he staggered through the LA Marathon and can often be found on local soccer fields). If you have a question about the Trojans or just want to give him a piece of your mind, email: adam@laist.com.
