Across State Lines: Williams, Gotham Win NWSL Championship

The NWSL season came to a close over the weekend with Gotham FC taking on OL Reign in San Diego. The match up featured two teams with a combined seven players with KC ties on the roster. Former KC Current forward, Lynn Williams, scored the opener for Gotham in their 2-1 win as Gotham one their first championship.

Elsewhere, in the USL Championship, their championship game also took place. The Charleston Battery, with former Swope Park Rangers’ player, Mark Segbers, took on Phoenix Rising in the final. A late Phoenix equalizer ruled out the Battery’s opener, that Segbers had an assist on. In the penalty kick shootout, Charleston took a 2-0 lead before missing their final three while Phoenix made them to win the final 3-2.
