Washington finished its quick west coast road trip with 1-1 record after a loss to Portland on Sunday. The team now looks forward to a return trip to Boston this weekend in NWSL action.

U.S. Women's National Team head coach Tom Sermanni has named Washington Spirit defender Ali Krieger and goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris to the 21-player roster that will travel to Toronto in preparation for the team's June 2 match against Canada.

A frantic last minute push by the Washington Spirit came up short as Portland held on for the 2-1 road victory in front of a sellout crowd of 5,011 at the Maryland SoccerPlex.

After acquiring defensive players in the NWSL allocation, the Washington Spirit switched their focus to attackers in the NWSL draft.
