#363: Early USWNT history with Marty Mankamyer

More oral history than a typical podcast episode. Mankamyer was a
real estate broker and youth soccer volunteer in Colorado who
rose through the ranks of U.S. Soccer governance in the 1980s and
was a key actor in promoting girls' youth soccer, the creation of
a women's national team, and the addition of women's soccer as an
Olympic sport in Atlanta in 1996. She also worked with and
against Werner Fricker, and helped Alan Rothenberg get elected as
president.

help with research and historical background.
