Highlight Week for Tiger Alums in the NWSL
July 16, 2019 | Women's Soccer
Princeton women's soccer alums made up half the options when the National Women's Soccer League tweeted four choices Monday for its Goal of the Week.
Â
Jen Hoy '13 got it going Friday night with a goal in the second minute of second-half stoppage time to give Sky Blue FC a 1-0 win over the Utah Royals:
Â
Sunday afternoon, Tyler Lussi '17 followed it up with another second-half stoppage-time goal, this one in the fourth minute of stoppage to lift the Portland Thorns to a 4-3 win over the Orlando Pride. That win kept Portland in a tie atop the NWSL with the North Carolina Courage with 22 points at just about the halfway mark of the 22-match season.
Tuesday, Lussi's goal won NWSL Goal of the Week recognition.
Â
Dramatic game-winners and individual brilliance on display in Week 13.
