    The North Carolina Courage beat Alex Morgan and the San Diego Wave in Snapdragon Stadium. Alex Morgan was denied a PK from Casey Murphy, and four Courage players scored. Melia Berkley was credited with three assists in the first half, a first in the NWSL. Throw in a red card for the San Diego keeper, and calling it a fantastic game is an understatement—but probably not for Alex Morgan fans.


    Sunday's match was Alex Morgan's final match. We thank her for her contributions to the sport, both on and off the field. Then, we look ahead to Friday's home match against Bay FC.

    The North Carolina Courage maintained their unbeaten streak at home with a win against the KC Current.

    We discuss the game, go over some stand-out stats and then we look ahead to the game against the San Diego Wave. We wrap up with some Courage and NWSL news.

    On this very special episode, we are joined by CTID Cast, Six Point Weekend, and The Uproar.

    We kick off by talking about the NWSL x Liga MX Femenil Summer Cup game against Orlando Pride, which ended in a draw. The Courage clinched the victory in PKs, largely due to Marisa Bova's outstanding performance, which included two crucial saves in her professional debut. Even with the Olympic athletes' absence, the team's performance was exceptional!

    With it being about halfway through the season, we picked our outstanding players of 2024 (so far):

    Ryan WilliamsManakaNarumi MiuraRiley JacksonKaleigh KurtzAshley Sanchez

    Everyone explains what we need for the last half of the season:

    Score moreAdjust to new and returning players after the OlympicsRoad winsTake down top-of-the-table teamsFull squad availabilityGet selfish in the final third and shoot

    Everyone shares where they think we'll finish this season and in the post. With the mountain climb to the top, everyone believes we'll be around 3-5th place with a third star at the end of this season. This team has so much upside, and the rest of the season will be fantastic.

    We end with the most significant impact player of the season (who wasn't previously covered):

    KerolinCortnee VineOlivia WingateBrianna PintoDenise O'SullivanFeli Rauch

    Do y'all agree with our selection, or is there an outstanding player we missed? Your opinion matters to us. Leave us a review and let us know who and why.

    The North Carolina Courage beat Racing Louisville at home. For the first time in Courage history, they came back after being down at half. Trevor and Katie discuss the three beautiful goals and the impactful half-time subs of Meredith Speck, Olivia Wingate, and Manaka Matsukubo. We give special recognition to Narumi Miura and Ashley Sanchez for their outstanding performance and impressive stats. We go on to provide an Olympic refresher with Casey Murphy, Sydney Collins, Kerolin Nicoli, Feli Rauch (alternative), and Courtnee Vine, all named to their rosters.


    We take a look around the league to relive that beautiful game against KC Current and Orlando Pride. We also take a moment to address what is going on at San Diego Wave, the Angel City FC sale.

    The North Carolina Courage beat the Chicago Red Stars. The Courage ended their goal drought in exciting fashion, with three goals from three different players: Tyler Lussi, Ashley Sanchez, and Meredith Speck. Riley Jackson got her first start, and we discussed how she looked. We share our love of Brianna Pinto and how we would love to see her get more starts. Then we dive into stats, take a look ahead at our Saturday match Washington Spirit, and briefly touch on our thoughts on the potential Olympic roster (which had yet to be announced as of recording).

    The NC Courage tie Orlando Pride. We discuss how we've never been so relieved with a tie and how great the team looked, in fact, perhaps the best they've looked. With Ryan Williams out on a red, the team stepped up and were able to play their game against the Pride. Since September of last year, no team has been able to keep the Pride from scoring. We take ahead to the Chicago Red Stars and discuss what went on in the league.
