Washington, D.C. - The Washington Spirit has recalled forward Emma Gaines-Ramos from her loan with Tampa Bay Sun FC of the Gainbridge Super League, the club announced today. Gaines-Ramos will join the Spirit for preseason training this month.

"We look forward to having Emma back in training with us," said General
