Since September, I know I’ve tried to fill the void that is the WPS off-season with Champions League, EPL matches, the MLS Championship or even National Team games – but it’s just not the same :-( And I’d venture to bet my fellow die-hard WPSers have been feeling the same way. But guess what guys, the 2010 Pre-Season is finally here… And nothing beats the excitement of knowing YOUR CLUB is back on the pitch!
The league put out a press release earlier today with some key information, but I thought the rosters and pre-season schedule of scrimmages would be of most interest for ya’all. Enjoy!
