Orlando Pride players say they fully buy in to coach Marc Skinner’s vision despite rough start

SANFORD, Fla. — When new Orlando Pride coach Marc Skinner looks at his team, he sees a group of players fully bought into what he’s trying to do, despite an early run of poor results.

The Pride (0-4-1, 1 point) are winless to start the season and are coming off back-to-back 1-0 losses during which their opponents managed goals thanks pieces of individual brilliance. The most recent example is Kealia Ohai’s match-winning goal in the seventh minute of the Pride’s 1-0 loss to the Houston Dash.

“When we had the meeting after the game, they took ownership and responsibility for their part in it,” Skinner said.
