Washington Spirit News Release
Washington, D.C. - Washington Spirit forward Brittany Ratcliffe has been named the NWSL Player of the Week, presented by AT&T, for her performance in Sunday's win over North Carolina, the league announced today.
Making her third start of the season, Ratcliffe made an impact quickly, tallying a goal and an assist in the match's opening 30 minutes. In the 24th minute, Ratcliffe sent a perfect cross into the center of the box that was buried by fellow forward Courtney Brown. Just three minutes later, Ratcliffe netted the game-winning goal with a header off an assist from defender Casey Krueger. The highlight play also represented the tenth regular season goal of Ratcliffe's career.
Ratcliffe's stellar play led the Spirit to a 3-1 win over the North Carolina Courage in front of an ever-rowdy Audi Field audience of 17,625. The Spirit will hit the road this weekend to face Portland Thorns FC on Sunday, June 15 at 4 p.m. EDT on CBS.
