Connor Letourneau, Favorite Audio Piece

I've shared a link to an audio piece entitled "Frank Lobos, Soccer" by ESPN's "Outside the Lines." The segment profiles Frank Lobos, a former Chilean soccer star who was among the 33 Chilean miners rescued in October. I chose this piece because it tells a fascinating story, and it does it a unique way. Rather than simply having Lobos tell his own story, it overlays commentary from former teammates, family and fans. It also plays audio from his time in the mine, and from his playing days. The end result is a compelling audio piece that does Lobos' story justice.
