Two players on the opposite ends of their careers made their Sky Blue FC debuts in a 1-0 loss to the Portland Thorns over the weekend at Yurcak Field in Piscataway, N.J.
Bethlehem, Pa. native Gina Lewandowski started at right back in the game and played 90 minutes while Mount Laurel, N.J. native Kenie Wright made her professional debut with a short cameo off the bench in stoppage time.
“Everyone’s been super welcoming, the whole club, the organization, and the girls have been very welcoming and friendly, so it was kind of an easy transition,” Lewandowski said in a news release.
