THE DOWNLOAD: Soccer Chefs, Hospital Filmmakers, Finding Community

With the soccer season still a few months away, the Aggies are finding ways to stay busy off the pitch.

Goalkeeper Wallis Lapsley and defender Luke Hazel have taken to hosting humorous, college-friendly cooking shows on the team’s Instagram page each week. The Game of Thrones-inspired meal they cooked last week can be seen here (an Instagram account is required).

The pair appeared on Good Day Sacramento this morning (May 28) — see their interview and demonstration above.
