@mnaurorafc.bsky.social leads River Light, 1-0, at the half. Before I call Detroit/Charleston in USL-C, I wanted to spotlight our *new* 2026 Match Notes. 20 pages full of all things Aurora (I know @njemurray.bsky.social will enjoy this). Read up during the break: drive.google.com/file/d/11wsr...

USL W League Match Day One. Oh, how I’ve missed you, Aurora home match days.

Minnesota.

Running it back for my 4th season. Can’t wait!

Excited to have @mnaurorafc.bsky.social back on @fox9mn.bsky.social for the season. Free, no paywalls, great broadcast with @jakegontv.bsky.social.

Career achievement unlocked x2: - cover my first ever MLS team (the co-top team in the league with the winningest manager of all time, no less) - call a match on a CBS network Man, I love the US Open Cup.

There’s no perfect way to prep for a broadcast, but I feel like I’ve landed on a near-perfect spot chart efficiency-wise. All the pertinent info I’d need, on two sheets in front of me. Adding the formations in the bottom corner has been a game-changer. Boards from Gainbridge Super League Wk. 25.

Hello world. About 5 weeks ago, I officially kicked off my 2nd season calling professional soccer for NEP North Americas & my 10th overall as a full-time play-by-play (which makes me feel a little old). Last week, I checked off a cool accomplishment: call my first US Open Cup. Excited for Round 2.

Thrilled to announce a new partnership between Minnesota Aurora FC and @artsmia.bsky.social! For our 5th season, Mia is designing a new kit in celebration of Minnesota and community. Official kit reveal April 2. Plus, artful activations all season. Learn more at mnaurora.com.

For @mnaurorafc.bsky.social, there was no debate about whether the team would speak out against ICE and its presence in the state. The question was: What would they say? And, how could they make a tangible impact in their community?

The wait is over… 2026 Season Tickets are now on sale. mnaurora.com/club/tickets/

A message from our founders:

Too much happened to fit in one post (see: notes app screenshot), but 127 broadcasts later, my 2025 commentary season is in the books. First year covering pro soccer, Aurora FC, NCAA Tourney; all fun stuff. Many, many thanks to all who helped make these opportunities possible.

Have you heard about the team that’s looking to go FIVE seasons #unbeaten?! 👀 Wes Burdine joins @susannahfuller.bsky.social and @empiregass.bsky.social to chat about the growth of #MinnesotaAurora, emphasizing the importance of being community owned!

Excited to have the call of my first MLS NEXT Pro Conference Final this weekend, between Colorado Rapids2 & Minnesota United 2. Fun matchup to have back on MD 29 & expecting more of the same come Sunday. Join fmr. RSL/Monarchs forward Ricky Lopez-Espin & I over on the Apple feed @ 8:30 ET.

Haven’t posted much lately (mainly bc I just called Game 113 in the last 200-some odd days) but an update: Very thankful for the chance to call my first-ever MLSNP Semifinal on Apple, feat. STL & MN — my hometown & “adopted” home. Incredible win for MNUFC. I’m not done yet this year! More to come.

Some @mnaurorafc.bsky.social broadcasting news: Their home games will be back on FOX 9+ (what we old-timers used to call Channel 29) this season, with the familiar voice of @jakegontv.bsky.social behind the microphone.
