Friday, June 18, 2021 | General, Soccer
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- When it comes to coaches, especially at the collegiate and professional levels, they tend to be easy to typecast as hard-driving and laser-focused individuals with one goal – winning.
But then there are those like Becky Burleigh, a true original who recently retired as the only head coach in the history of the Florida soccer program.
On this special edition of "Gator Greats," host Adam Schick takes Burleigh down memory lane in a wide-ranging and revealing discussion about her improbable beginnings as a young head coach, the challenges of launching a new program, her toughest opponents, how she knew it was time to step aside, what she plans to do with her second act and much more.
