The Washington Spirit waived forward Tiffany Weimer, the club announced this afternoon. Weimer came on as a substitute during each of the Spirit's two preseason matches this season. Unfortunately for Weimer, the Spirit had already signed 20 players- the maximum amount of roster spots. To clear roster space for a draft pick, the club needed to waive a player.
Cheyna Williams, the Spirit's first round draft pick this year, is a likely signee. She has started in each preseason game and has combined well with Katie Stengel.
Weimer, 32, was traded from the Portland Thorns to the Spirit in 2014.
