The Dash celebrated more than a road victory and their third-straight positive result Sunday night. They also celebrated the return of defender Bruna Benites.
Benites had missed the previous six games with a sprain in her left MCL. The Brazilian center back started the first five games. She returned to action when she subbed on in the 76th minute of Sunday's 2-1 win over FC Kansas City.
Benites' return should boost the already improving defense. She provides a steady presence and great athleticism. She could return to a starting role Saturday night against Portland Thorns FC at BBVA Compass Stadium.
