National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) will have its semifinal playoff rounds played this weekend. The NWSL Championship match is scheduled for next Saturday afternoon from Orlando, Florida. All 4 NWSL playoff squads will have a familiar face to Cal fans as there is one Cal Women’s Soccer alum on each of the 4 NWSL playoff teams in 2017. All the NWSL playoff matches, scheduled for 12:30 PM PT, will be broadcasted live on Lifetime.
Cal alum Alex Morgan, the highest profile women’s soccer player in the world who shared the FIFA cover with Leo Messi last year, may have been in the news for the wrong reason recently.
