The Boston Breakers finally return home after a long stretch of four away games in a row - four away games they lost one after the other in varying fashion.
After watching the Breakers go from getting blown out by the Flash, struggling back against Seattle, and getting cruelly robbed against Orlando, emotional stakes should be a bit higher than usual when they return to Jordan Field.
Boston probably senses they could have had points in Orlando, giving them an extra kick of energy as they return to their home field after a month away.
It’ll be interesting to see if Beard continues to use his four back of Brooke Elby, Kassey Kallman, Julie King, and Christen Westphal, while pushing Pathman up into the midfield.
