Previews

(all times ET) Saturday, July 21 (7:30 pm) Carolina at Boston (TV: ATT3). Did you know? Boston has won the previous two meetings against Carolina. The balanced attack of Maren Meinert and Dagny Mellgren accounted for the game-winning goals in those games. That duo will need another steady performance to avoid switching places with last place Carolina. Sunday, July 22 (6:00 pm) Washington at Bay Area (TV: CNNSI). Did you know? The CyberRays are the only team in the league with a winning record at home, going 4-2-1 at Spartan. Sunday, July 22 (7:00 pm) New York at Atlanta (TV: MSG, Fox Sports South). Did you know? The Beat has allowed 0.8 goals per game through its first 14 matches. New York will need to rely on league leader, Tiffeny Milbrett, to break down the Atlanta defense. She leads the league with 11 goals.
