William Eskay, Former Urbana Soccer Star, The Soccer Tournament

After winning a share of $1 million for playing in The Soccer Tournament earlier this month, former Urbana High soccer star William Eskay is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast.

Eskay played for the Newtown Pride, which won the $1 million, winner-take-all The Soccer Tournament on June 4 in Cary, North Carolina. Newtown outlasted 32 teams in the four-day, World-Cup-style tournament that was televised on Peacock and some of the NBC networks.

Eskay chats with host Greg Swatek about being part of the winning team and what he plans to do with his share of the money, half of which was split evenly among the 18 players on the Newtown team.

Eskay talks about how he became involved with the Newtown Pride and why the team was so dominant throughout the tournament. He also touches on his professional career with the St. Louis Ambush of the Major Arena Soccer League and all of the momentous ways his life has changed in recent months.

Prior to that conversation, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to talk about some summer sports happenings in Frederick County.
