The Pride (minus several starters) went to North Carolina and — much like the first time they went there — they came home with a point. The 1-1 draw wasn't a terrible result, but it would have been a lot better if Orlando had managed to win the extra point that was just sitting there, waiting for them, in the ensuing penalty shootout. We discuss the team's Summer Cup opener with two home games remaining against Monterrey and Racing Louisville. We may not have made score predictions, but we did give our thoughts (unanimously) on the Pride's Player of the Match. Our mailbagbox asked about Bri Martinez, Olympic rosters, defenders making the monthly Best XI, and more.

After the mailbagbox, we discussed the Pride players in the Olympics and what their schedule looks like this week. There will be a lot of reasons to watch this Olympic tournament for Pride fans. The Pride return home for a Saturday night meeting with Monterrey — the team's first competitive match against an international opponent. This is great for the game, and we are excited to learn all about Monterrey this weekend. Here’s how Episode 53 went down: 0:15 – The Pride went to the Courage and were outplayed but still managed a late goal to tie it before throwing away a penalty shootout lead. 12:47 – The mailbagbox asks us to reveal what we know. 27:55 – The Olympic schedule for the Pride's internationals this week and a brief discussion of how little we know about Monterrey.
