The Washington Spirit looked to end their winless streak through a tough test against the third place Houston Dash. Though the Dash led at halftime, two goals in two minutes from Ashley Hatch gave the Spirit the lead before another late equalizer sealed their tenth draw of the season.
The Washington Spirit and Houston Dash met for the 22nd time in their respective franchises history, as the Spirit are looking to make their way up the table for a chance to defend their championship title. This would be the Spirit’s first match without defender Emily Sonnett, as well as now ex-coach Kris Ward.
