The Inside Scoop with Ebony Salmon and Megan Rapinoe
Megan Rapinoe (MR): Hey Ebony! It’s great to finally sit down and chat. Obviously, you’re making some serious waves in the NWSL. How’s everything feeling on your end?
Ebony Salmon (ES): Hey Megan! It’s so cool to be sharing this space with you. Things have been crazy in the best way possible. The season’s been intense, but I’m loving every minute of it.
MR: That’s what I love to hear. You’re showing serious speed and skill on the field—what’s your secret? Any specific training or is it natural-born talent?
ES: Haha, it’s a mix of both, I guess! I’ve always been fast, but I’ve upped my training game big time since joining the NWSL. Working with the team, focusing on my strengths, and pushing my limits every day.
MR: That’s the spirit! I’ve gotta ask, who’s been your toughest opponent so far?
ES: Oh, that’s a tough one. Every team has its challenges, but playing against you and your squad definitely ranks high! Your ability to control the game is just next level.
MR: Flattery will get you everywhere, Ebony! But seriously, your adaptability on the pitch is super impressive. Do you have any pre-game rituals or superstitions?
ES: I like to keep it simple—good music, a bit of stretching, and visualizing how I want the game to go. No wild superstitions here!
MR: That sounds like a solid routine. Speaking of music, what’s your go-to track to get pumped before a big match?
ES: Right now, it’s got to be “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd. The energy just gets me going!
MR: Love it! So, beyond soccer, what are some of your passions? How do you unwind after the games?
ES: I’m a bit of a foodie, to be honest. Exploring new places to eat and trying new recipes at home helps me relax. Plus, spending time with family and friends, of course.
MR: Sounds perfect. Well, Ebony, it’s been great catching up. Keep rocking it out there on the field—we’re all rooting for you!
ES: Thanks, Megan! This was awesome. Catch you on the pitch!
