Hey, cover women's soccer, too


Fortunately ESPN actually did cover the semi-finals of the National Women's Soccer League - on the Web, at least.  It wasn't easy to find news about it elsewhere.

Anyway, it should be a good game - the Western New York Flash play shut down defense and let Abby Wambach and Carli Lloyd do their thing, and the Portland Thorns FC have the new scoring darling, Alex Morgan, who has recovered enough from her knee strain to be available to play.  Unfortunately, one of Portland's goal scorers, another young star named Tobin Heath, got hurt near the end of the game.  I don't know how bad.

So, here's ESPN's take:  Western New York Flash to play Portland Thorns FC for title
