The Cooler Guild

7 out of 9 possible points ain't bad. The Reign concluded their three match home-stand in Spokane with a draw to expansion side Denver Summit. We discuss the strong performances from both goalkeepers and the lack of clinical finishing that ultimately left the game scoreless. We also cover results from around the league, the upcoming USWNT matches, and what we hope for with the teams return to Lumen Field at the end of the month.

*massive sigh* All was not well leading up to this match and all did not end well either. In this episode we discuss the Reign's loss in Portland and all the factors that played a part, as we hopefully forget about what transpired as quickly as possible.
