You might not know it, but Minnesota is the home of one of the nation’s top amateur soccer teams.
Duluth FC, a member of the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL)’s North Conference, has advanced to the final four of the league’s nation-wide playoffs. The Blue Greens will travel to Florida to face The Miami FC’s second team in the semifinals. If Duluth wins, and the result of the other semifinal goes the right way, the national championship game could be coming to Minnesota.
This year was only the second season for the NPSL North, but the conference is already burgeoning with talent both on and off the pitch.
