EPISODE 21 with LAILA EDWARDS
Description
Welcome back to Jocks Next Gen—your home for the future of the PWHL and the game’s next elite stars. Each week, we spotlight top prospects from North America and Europe who are turning heads and emerging as future PWHL standouts.
Today, we’re joined by a BIG TIME prospect, everybody. She’s an Olympic Gold Medalist, Olympic All-Star, World Champion, Worlds MVP, and a three-time NCAA National Champion — and the list just keeps going. She’s a trailblazer, making history as the first Black woman to represent Team USA at both the World Championships and the Olympics. Please welcome, Laila Edwards!
