“This is a really huge win. In past games, we would win a big game and then we fall short just a little bit,” said rookie forward Messiah Bright, who scored in the 16th minute. “But I think now it’s just showing our consistency and it’s just showing that we can play with anyone.”

Forward Julie Doyle made an excellent move to beat her defender in a 1-on-1 battle to set up a perfect cross, which Bright headed in for her fourth goal of the season.
