Knock on wood, but it appears that OL Reign may be peaking at the right time. The club returns to Lumen Field on Saturday, October 1, to close out the regular season in front of their fans. They already qualified for the postseason and are guaranteed a home playoff match, but the Reign could be vying for the NWSL Shield or a first-round playoff bye as well.
Considering the team had been hanging around near 6th place for the last few months, their late surge should be an exciting one for Reign supporters.
In fact, this last week, OL Reign did something no team in the NWSL has done this year: they won three road matches in a row.
