Sofia Huerta's two goals lifted the Dash over the Utah Royals, 2-1, Friday at BBVA Stadium.
Huerta's second goal came in the 62nd minute off a long lead pass from Rachel Daly. She streaked in all alone and went top shelf off the crossbar for the game-winner.
Huerta has five goals on the season, tying the team lead.
Gunnhildur Yrsa Jónsdóttir scored the lone Royals goal in the 75th minute.
Houston earned the bounce-back win after consecutive losses to Sky Blue FC and the Red Stars. The victory helped with the team's postseason push, putting the Dash in 6th place and six points out of a playoff spot.
