Founding 4 Podcast

Forward Audra Richards joins the show to discuss her return to Minnesota, the highs and lows of her rookies season with the Metropolitan Riveters, and all the good food that can be found in the State of Hockey.

Show Notes

After scoring a team-leading eight goals in her rookie year for the Riveters, Audra Richards decided to return home and play for the Minnesota Whitecaps. The Founding 4 Podcast caught up with Richards back in August after she inked her new deal.

Richards talks about following in her father’s footsteps as a physical education teacher, being the youngest and arguably the most competitive member of her family, and how she and her team worked through adversity in the 2018-19 season.
