San Diego Wave defeated the Washington Spirit 1-0 in a rain-soaked match, despite the rain. Midfielder Lia Godfrey scored the winning goal in the 60th minute, marking her fifth game-winner of the season. The win keeps the Wave in fourth place in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) and keeps them playing better on the road this season. Despite the weather conditions, San Diego's victory continues their East Coast odyssey, with a match at NJ/NY Gotham FC on Friday. The Wave has also acquired defender Brooklyn Courtnall on loan from Bay FC, though she did not see the field in the win.
