While the focus of women’s soccer around the globe is centered around the World Cup in France this weekend, the Philadelphia Lone Star Women will be making a little history of their own with their first two home Women’s Premier Soccer League games.
Lone Star will welcome CAFC Osprey to the South Philadelphia Super Site today at 5 p.m. and Old Dominion Cesena USA at 4 p.m. on Sunday.
For midfielder Sophie Edelblut, the youngest player on the team at 17, playing for the inaugural women’s team for the club, offers her a chance to play in the city where she first fell in love with the game.
