Shorecrest gets six saves from goalkeeper Amy Bemis, plus another stop in the shootout, and the Scots earn their first girls' AA-A state championship in seven years, 0-0 (4-3), over Gig Harbor at Shoreline Stadium. Shorecrest, who ended Kennedy's two-year reign in the semifinals, goes unbeaten (19-0-2) while the Tides finish 19-1-0. Bemis ends the season with 16 shutouts and allowed only three goals. Erin Mayovsky, who scored 25 goals for the Scots, converts one of the penalty kicks.

Cristian Roldan's second goal comes in the 89th minute of a scoring fest, with Sounders FC emerging on top of the LA Galaxy, 4-3, for a much-needed win before 46,673 entertained fans at Century Link Field. Four of the seven goals are scored in the final 15 minutes, but Seattle never trails after a Raul Ruidiaz opener in first-half stoppage time. Zlatan Ibrahimovic leads to visitors back to 2-2 before Jordan Morris briefly regains the lead. Roldan runs onto sub Brad Smith's pass at the 6-yard box and he finishes for his sixth goal and third in two games.

Rookie central defender Jackson Ragen scores the opener and helps anchor Tacoma's defense to a shutout win over Orange County in Irvine, Ca. Sam Adeniran and Marlo Vargas also tally for the Defiance, winners of three straight and now 7-4-6 and up to second place in the USL Pacific Division. Adeniran has three goals in the three wins, and Tacoma is undefeated over eight games (4-0-4), by far the best in the franchise's history.

A Spokane Public Facilities District committee decides the next direction for the city's professional soccer aspirations. They choose to go with women's and men's USL teams for the new downtown stadium. There will be a USL Super League (Div. II) team for women and a League One (Div. III) men's club. The USL proposal, led by Cindy Wendle, competed against Brett Sports, owner of the Spokane Chiefs hockey and Spokane Indians Minor League Baseball franchises. Brett Sports proposed bringing an MLS farm team, potentially the Tacoma Defiance.

The Kitsap Pumas pull off the biggest upset of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup's third round, defeating USL Sacramento Republic, 3-1, on the road. All the scoring occurs in a six-minute phase midway through the second half. Michael Ramos answers the Sacramento equalizer on a rebound of a save of his initial shot. Javier Castro, who tallied the game's first goal, provides a two-goal cushion in the 65th minute. It's the firs time the Pumas have reached the fourth round. The Republic go on to finish atop the USL Western Division.
