The Washington Spirit hosted the San Diego Wave during their second Pride Night match of the season, and ended up snapping their 16-game winless streak with a 4-3 win. Tara McKeown scored the Spirit’s first, followed by two from defender Amber Brooks, with Ashley Hatch scoring the final goal via a penalty in the 100th minute.
San Diego Wave’s 17-year-old star, Jaedyn Shaw, who trained with the Washington Spirit in the opening half of this season before being signed by the Wave, opened the match with a 7th minute goal. Not long after the opening goal by the Wave, Trinity Rodman darted down the wing, fed the ball to Ashley Hatch who moved it on to Ashley Sanchez who set up Tara McKeown for a first time finish to respond in the 11th minute.
