CHICAGO - The Chicago Red Stars' Welcome Home Match today, September 8, presented by United Airlines, had an attendance of 7,291 and pushed the total regular-season attendance for the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) past 1.5 million for the first time in league history.

"I'd like to thank each and every person in attendance this afternoon for joining us in celebrating our and Orlando's Olympians, and for helping make the Red Stars the club that pushed the league to this new attendance record," said Chicago Red Stars president, Karen Leetzow.
