Alex Heinert is an American sports broadcaster from the Midwest and a longtime supporter of all things soccer. A lifelong USMNT/WNT fan and a Liverpool fan since '06, Heinert's first turn at covering the Beautiful Game came with Australia's SportsBanter.com, where he reported on the 2014 World Cup and the English Premier League. Along with his current role at numberFire, he's currently the host of "Immensely Special", a monthly soccer podcast that his friends and family (and likely no one else) dutifully listens to. When he's not watching soccer, Alex covers University of North Dakota Athletics, the NCHC and the Big Sky Conference for Midco Sports Network in Grand Forks, North Dakota. He loves Christ, his wife, America and a good Reuben sandwich.
