The National Women’s Soccer League was set to start their season on Saturday, but some Orlando Pride players have cost the club at least the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup.
On Monday, the Orlando Pride announced that several players and a staff member had tested for positive for COVID-19 and that they have withdrawn from the Challenge Cup. Then on Tuesday, the Guardian reported that several younger Pride players caught the virus after going to Orlando bars and nightclubs despite social distancing protocols.
Twitter detectives have alleged from Venmo transactions and Instagram posts that former Buffaloes Taylor Kornieck and Erin Greening were two of those players who tested positive.
