Four years after a decisive victory over Japan, the United States women’s national team has now claimed back-to-back FIFA Women’s World Cups after defeating the Netherlands 2–0 in Lyon, France.

The 24-nation tournament took place in stadiums throughout France from June 7 to July 7.

The victory brings the U.S. their fourth Women’s World Cup title. The USWNT are the first repeat winners since Germany accomplished it in 2003 and 2007.

Megan Rapinoe scored on a penalty kick in the 61st minute and Rose Lavelle added another goal in the 69th minute to clinch the championship for the U.S after a scoreless first half.

The U.S. opened the tournament with a dominating 13–0 victory over Thailand, setting a record for most goals scored in a World Cup match. Co-captain Alex Morgan tied the record for most individual goals in one game with five.

The U.S. finished first in group F after a 3-0 win over Chile and a 2-0 win over Sweden.

In the round of 16, the Americans kicked off with Spain, winning by a score of 2–1 as Rapinoe scored on two penalty kicks.

The U.S. took on the host country France in the quarterfinals, and Rapinoe, once again, scored two goals to send the U.S. to the semifinals with a 2–1 victory.

In their semifinal match, the Americans again came out on top 2–1 over England, with one goal coming via a header by Christen Press.

Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher made a diving save to her right on a penalty kick, keeping the English from tying the game in the final few moments of the game.

“I think it takes a lot of determination and belief to be there, for the ball to find you in the box, for you to be able to execute when the team needs you,” Press told ABC News.

“I was feeling gratitude for the people who helped me get to where I am and belief in my team and in our goal.”

The next Women’s World Cup will be held in 2023. FIFA lists some of the potential hosts for that tournament on its website, including Australia, Japan, Brazil and a joint bid between North and South Korea.

Roosters' Summer of Love featured live music, brewery tours, a wide selection of brews and Lucky Slice pizza. If that all isn't enough, they also had rubber duck races in a canal and a river bottom bike ride. Oh, and ax throwing.

The Summer of Love took place in West Ogden on July 6 to celebrate the recently-opened Roosters B Street Brewery.

Many local businesses attended, sharing their food or products and sponsoring activities. Among those were Porter's Whiskey, Social Axe Throwing, Lucky Slice Pizza, Beehive Cheese, ENVE Composites, Northern Utah Cornhole, and Daily Rise Coffee.

The Proper Way and The Good Bones per-

formed live.

Just as Roosters was among the first businesses to open on the previously-neglected and crime-ridden 25th Street, they have opened up their new B Street Brewery in West Ogden as a frontrunner for its redevelopment.

"This is a really cool spot," Nate Brown, an attendee to the Summer of Love, said.

"This brewery, with its taproom and dining, is a huge attraction for West Ogden. I really see this as the beginning of an attractive and redeveloped part of Ogden. I'll definitely be back."

Other attendees were also excited about the growth that Roosters brewery could bring to Ogden.

"Property values have been going up in West Ogden, and I think it will continue

as we see new development like Roosters brewery," said Mandi Lee, a Roosters goer and local real estate agent with Coldwell Banker. "It will help with crime as well. It's kind of the same as the area by Slackwater.

You see that area grow as you see restaurants and business goes in there, then new housing and development go in there. I see the same thing happening now with West Ogden."

"Holy Wowza!" Roosters Brewing Co. shared from their Facebook page on Sun-

The new Roosters brewery aims to bring growth to West Ogden.

AN EVENING STROLL

ON 25TH STREET

ROBERT LEWIS | The Signpost

Seth Hadlock — a WSU alumnus, local artist and rancher — also does western wildlife art. Hadlock primarily utilizes charcoal in his art after finding his passion as a student in WSU. “I got hurt bad when I was a kid, and I couldn’t walk. So I just started drawing then, and I stayed with it ever since,” Hadlock said.

Artists like Hadlock showcased their art at Ogden's First Friday Art Stroll on July 5.

This event brings the Ogden community together every first of the month, aiming

for attendees to enjoy a stroll while taking in various art.

Beyond the art placed in different stores along 25th Street, the art strolls feature food trucks in the Union Station and live music throughout.

People can learn more about the local and regional artists and what brings them to the Art Stroll. This is a way for artists to market their talent and share with people their inspiration behind their pieces of art.

Linda McAfee, a local artist, brought her art to the Union Station. McAfee's technique captivated some attendees.

“I found that holding the brush my hands would go numb. I ran into a gal do-

ing finger-paint and oil and it was a great opportunity,” McAfee said.

McAfee hopes the First Friday Art Stroll helps her market herself and spreads the word about her art.

“It’s kind of impressionistic; it’s not super realistic. It’s just kind of loose and loud, much like myself,” McAfee said of her art.

Allison Vudzvan is an artist that spent some of her time traveling from Utah to Arizona as a military wife. In her trips back and forth, she found the scenery important and inspirational.

“It’s rare because when you fly a plane, you can’t really see all the things the landscapes have to offer,” Vudzvan said.

Vudzvan finds her art relaxing. She likes to focus of how the art helps with stress relief, meditation and mindfulness.

Since 2012, Vudzvan's painting style has been oil on canvas. She said it started as a hobby, but it has helped her meet new to people and expand her artwork.

Vudzvan said the First Friday Art Stroll is an opportunity not only for artists but also for the Ogden community.

“It gives people a different scenery, instead of just being in an office all day and then going home,” Vudzvan said.

Symphony fans packed their chairs and blankets and settled in on the lawns of Snow Basin Resort on July 3 to kick off the Fourth of July Weekend with a performance by the Utah Symphony.

Broadway’s Hugh Panaro, the night’s special guest, started the night with The National Anthem.

Although the night focused on classic American favorites and most attendees sported red, white and blue clothes, some struggled with the idea of celebrating a country in such a distressed state.

“A few years ago I would’ve told you the Fourth of July was my favorite holiday,” concert attendee Brian Milligan said. “But people are in cages, and we are discussing a wall. That is a country that I have a hard time celebrating.”

Despite the conflicting opinions, Mil-

ligan still stood in support of the veterans as tributes were paid to each department.

“I will always respect and show gratitude to those who serve for our country, but I am not sure I will be able to always celebrate the country as I once did,” Milligan said.

Julie Abernat, a local patron at the concert, said that as a country, we are often brought together by negative conditions. Although she disagrees with and is not supportive of many of the ways the country seems to be moving, she still believes in celebrating people uniting as one.

“Because the country is in so much turmoil, it is even more important that we come together for events like these,” Abernat said. “We need to unite despite our differences in uplifting circumstances.”

Abernat said she and her husband tell

their children it is important to participate in events where people show support toward those “who have given up so much.”

“My husband and I have taught our children the importance of educating themselves on the political state of the country they live in but still standing up for their country, their freedom and every single individual who is affected by it,” Abernat said.

Patrons swayed in unison as tunes such as Yankee Doodle, This Land is Your Land and God Bless the USA filled the sky.

“Just look around. Eyes opened or closed. It is beautiful here and we are so privilege to take advantage of it,” concert attendee Brittnie Laken said.

“There is not very many better ways I can think of to pay tribute and celebrate our country.”

DANYA GIL Commentary

When the United States women’s national soccer team won the World Cup in 2015, the players were paid $2 million. In 2014, after losing in the first stage of the World Cup, the U.S. men’s team players were paid $8 million, according to The Hill.

Women in sports — training and performing on the same level or better than men — are not compensated as well or afforded the same luxuries.

On International Women’s Day, the USWNT filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation, saying leaders engage in gender-based employment discrimination.

In March, House Democrats passed the Paycheck Fairness Act. This legislation would require employers to prove that pay disparities are not rooted in gender discrimination.

The bill is currently stalled in the Senate.

According to Refinery29, players of the U.S. women’s national soccer team currently can make up to $4,950 per game while U.S. men soccer players can make up to $13,166 per game.

NBC’s Peter Alexander asked Donald Trump on June 12 if the women’s team should be paid equally to the men’s team.

“We’ll talk about that later,” Trump said.

If we keep holding off the conversation, we’re not just setting women in soccer or sports back. We’re setting a precedent that no matter how hard a woman works, no matter her accomplishments and no matter the sacrifices she makes, her actions are not equally valued to what men do.

According to The Hill, women in the U.S. make 80 cents for every dollar men make. The numbers dwindle for women of color, with black women making 61 cents and Latinas making 53 cents.

The disparities do not end with paychecks. The USWNT allege substandard travel accommodations and training conditions. But these women are not the only ones to put up with these conditions.

Natalie Achonwa, forward for the WNBA’s Indiana Fever, took to Twitter on June 24 to show her followers the traveling woes she and her team face.

After a Sunday game in Seattle, the team opted to take a red-eye flight home so they could practice and get sufficient rest for their game on Tuesday.

Their 10:30 p.m. flight on Sunday was delayed, landing in Atlanta around 8 on Monday morning. With all flights to Indiana booked, the team got on a charter bus for an 8-hour journey. During their second pit stop, the bus broke down.

Currently under the WNBA’s Collective Bargaining Agreement, players are required to fly coach, even if team owners have jets. On the other side of the gender gap, the NBA almost exclusively uses private jets.

Defenders of these conditions and the pay gap often justify these disparities by saying women do not perform at the same level, they do not bring the same revenue and do not pull in audiences like men.

The USMNT did not qualify for 2018’s World Cup while the women just won their second World Cup in a row.

The 2015 World Cup final garnered 23 million viewers, making it the most-watched soccer game in American television history, according to Sports Illustrated. The U.S. women’s jersey is the number one soccer jersey ever sold on Nike’s website in one season.

Due to viewing numbers, ESPN announced that it will broadcast 14 National Women’s Soccer League games.

Lifetime and A&E Networks exited a three-year broadcast partner deal with the league in February.

The players just want to be given their fair share of representation. On the day of the World Cup final, two mens’ finals were scheduled, none overlapping in time. However, Megan Rapinoe — the USWNT’s captain during the 2019 World Cup — criticized FIFA for the stacked schedule.

Some soccer viewers liked the idea of three games in a day. However, multiple games means resources are scattered. Media coverage — pre-game, post-game, analysis — of the USWNT may not be given the spotlight or attention to detail it deserves. The fatigue of watching television for hours on end, although the women’s match was the first of the day, could drive viewers away. All three games deserved fully captivated and refreshed audiences.

Women in sports are making strides to leave the field better than how they found them. Women of the WWE began as ring valets, women who would walk with men to the ring but not fight. They now headline pay-per-views and battle at the same level as men. In 2016, WWE stopped calling their female talent “divas” and instead called them “superstars,” the same title as men.

Althea Gibson, playing tennis in the midst of segregation, was the first African-American player to win a Grand

Slam title in 1956. A decade later, Arthur Ashe became the first African-American man to reach this feat. They paved the road for Serena Williams, 23-time Grand Slam champion and the only woman on Forbes’ 100 Highest Paid Athletes list.

It is because of the hard work of women like Gibson that Williams and other players can do what they do. It is because of women like Rapinoe and the USWNT that future women in soccer — and women in all other fields — will not have to fight to be heard or compensated correctly.

Women in sports, in the past and currently, are not only proving and showing young girls that they can compete at any level but also that they are second to no one.

What we, as an audience, need to do is support these women. U.S. players feel the support when the World Cup rolls around every four years, but when the smoke settles, these women go back to play on different teams that see stadiums with low attendance.

World Cup final attendees chanted “equal pay” as FIFA President Gianni Infantino prepared to hand out medals; “equal pay” also trended on Twitter after the game ended.

It’s not enough to back these women solely every four years.

We need to support girls who join soccer clubs at a community level. They are the ones who go on to play at the collegiate level and beyond. This support needs to be extended beyond soccer, beyond sports and into all arenas of life.

When women succeed, we all succeed.
