Gutsy, gritty win in Seattle. First win in Seattle for NC since 2018 and the first ever for the club at Lumen Field as the Reign played at UW in the games the Courage won in 2017 and 2018.

USWNT roster day = a good day to read @abigailsegel.bsky.social's chat with Ashley Sanchez on @us.theguardian.com! "A lot of people, and maybe even myself, kind of counted me out. It would just be a testament to going through a little bit of a tough time and still being able to find your way back."

There is a bit of poetry to Ashley Sanchez tying the NWSL single-season goalscoring record in Utah. Back in 2024, Sanchez scored her first goal in a Courage jersey here. Now, she sits on 20 for the season and 27 for her Courage career. Only Lynn Biyendolo and Debinha have more for the club.
