  • Courage Wave Goodbye to Morgan
    Sep 12 2024
    In This Episode

    The North Carolina Courage beat Alex Morgan and the San Diego Wave in Snapdragon Stadium. Alex Morgan was denied a PK from Casey Murphy, and four Courage players scored. Melia Berkley was credited with three assists in the first half, a first in the NWSL. Throw in a red card for the San Diego keeper, and calling it a fantastic game is an understatement—but probably not for Alex Morgan fans.


    Sunday's match was Alex Morgan's final match. We thank her for her contributions to the sport, both on and off the field. Then, we look ahead to Friday's home match against Bay FC.


    We look ahead to the game against the Bay FC and wrap up with some Courage and NWSL news.


    The NC Courage win 1-4 against the San Diego Wave.

    The North Carolina Courage maintained their unbeaten streak at home with a win against the KC Current. Despite extreme heat and a torrential downpour in the 80th minute (causing a 90-minute game delay), the Courage won with goals by brand new Australian international Cortnee Vine, and Durham local and UNC alum Brianna Pinto.


    We discuss the game, go over some stand-out stats and then we look ahead to the game against the San Diego Wave. We wrap up with some Courage and NWSL news.


    The NC Courage win 2-1 against the Kansas City Current.

  • Shaking Off The Rust

    In This Episode

    The North Carolina Courage lost on the road to Seattle Reign. We review the game and give a special shout-out to Megan Rapinoe, whose jersey was retired before the match. We look ahead at what now seems to be a more beatable KC team. We wrap things up by discussing the groundbreaking CBA that just dropped, which gives the players much of what they've been asking for!


    The NC Courage lose 1-0 against the Seattle Reign.
