Louisville Racing vs Washington Spirit

Louisville Racing FC hosted the Washington Spirit at Lynn Family Stadium on May 21, 2021. Louisville won the game 2-0. I did not attend this game as I let my niece use my season ticket.

Attendance was 6,011. Notable events for this game is Louisville native Emina Ekic scored her first goal in the 76 minute and later assisted on the second goal scored by CeCe Kizer in the 81st minute. Goalie Michelle Betos weathered 29 shots with 10 of them being on goal.

The U.S. National Women's National Team coach Vlatko Andonovski attended this game and spoke with some of Louisville's players afterwards. Picture below is after game of USWNT coachVlatko Andonovski talking to Louisville Racing FC coach Christy Holly and Washington Spirit coach Richie Burke.

Louisville Racing First Regular Season Home Game

I was able to attend Louisville Racing FC's first home game of the regular season on May 15, 2021. They played Kansas City NWSL, the other 2021 expansion team of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). Attendance at Lynn Family Stadium was 6,622. The game ended in a tie 0-0.

The game was uneventful as I recall. I did not take very many pictures. Former U.S. national team player Lori Lindsey was in front of our seats doing some pre-game video for the game. It was shown on CBS Sports Network. She was joined by Jenn Hildreth off to the right side in the brown jacket.

Next picture is of Marisa Pilla interviewing Louisville Racing forward Cece Kizer before the game.


Last image is of a paper commemorative ticket that was left at the seats. All the tickets so far have been digital so this one is rare.

After 8 Years Amaryllis Blooms

I last recorded this amaryllis plant blooming in June 2013. The plant itself might be about 20 years old. It has not been repotted in probably 10 years.
