Houston Dash News Release
HOUSTON - The National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) announced the regular season schedule for the 2025 campaign earlier today, which includes the full 26-game slate for the Houston Dash. This is the first campaign under the leadership of Angela Hucles Mangano, who joined the organization as the President of Women's Soccer on Dec. 9.
The Dash will open the 2025 season against the Washington Spirit at Shell Energy Stadium at 7 p.m. CT on Friday, March 14. The Home Opener, powered by Shell Energy, will mark the debut of head coach Fabrice Guatrat, who joined the organization on Jan. 3 as the sixth head coach in team history. The first fans to enter the venue on March 14 will receive a Houston Dash wall flag, courtesy of Shell Energy. This will also be the first opportunity for fans to watch Yazmeen Ryan, Danielle Colaprico, Delanie Sheehan and Christen Westphal take the field as members of the team. Fan favorites like captain Jane Campbell, Paige Nielsen, Diana Ordóñez and Natalie Jacobs will also look to help the team secure a postseason berth in the upcoming campaign.
Four of the first five matches for the team will feature opponents that qualified for the postseason in 2024. That includes a visit from Crystal Dunn, Rose Lavelle and NJ/NY Gotham FC on She Shines Night at 7 p.m. CT on March 28. The evening will celebrate women who inspire the next generation of female athletes, entrepreneurs and leaders. Christen Press and Angel City FC will close this two-game homestand at 4 p.m. CT on Saturday, April 12.
