The Houston Dash fell to Sky Blue FC 1-0 at Yarcak Field to drop the season series after a scoreless draw in April.
The game-winning goal came in the 54th minute when Taylor Lytle tested her luck outside the box and beat Dash goalkeeper Bianca Henninger at the near post. That was Lytle’s first goal of the season and that was the sixth consecutive time the Dash dropped a game with a 1-0 score line.
With seven national team players reporting to training camp last month in preparation for the Olympic Games the Dash saw five changes to the starting lineup from Houston’s last game on June 23 against the Orlando Pride.
