  • Blair made four saves on Sunday and now has 138 for her career … The Buccaneer keeper needs two more saves to move into a tie for eighth with Leslie Maczka (1997) and seven to move into a tie for seventh with Lauren Fannon (1999-2000)

Anybody herd this rumor?

From various sources — new NWSL CBA will include elimination of the college draft effective immediately. Players will be free to sign with whoever they see fit

I've heard that! There's been some murmurs of discontent with the draft for a while. Sophia Smith famously only agreed to play in the NWSL if she could be assured Portland would have the first pick. I think it will make the roles of head coach and front office so much more important.
