Q&A: Getting to know new sideline reporter and San Jose native Danielle Slaton

sjearthquakes.com: Welcome to the Earthquakes broadcast team! How does it feel to be back home in the South Bay?

Danielle Slaton: “I’m excited! Obviously the Earthquakes are doing great things, but I grew up in San Jose - it’s home. I got to play at halftime when I was 10 years old when the Quakes were playing at Spartan Stadium. This is a team that I knew and grew up as a kid watching, so my life is coming full circle."
