About this listen
Denver Summit FC faces its toughest month of the season. Five matches. Four on the road. Every opponent brings a different challenge.
In this episode, we break down May's brutal schedule match by match—starting with fellow expansion side Boston Legacy FC, then Houston Dash's relentless pressure (281 tackles last season), Orlando Pride's league-best efficiency with Barbra Banda, Utah Royals' physical disruption (345 tackles, most in NWSL), and Racing Louisville's transition chaos (305 shots, most in the league).
We analyze what each matchup tests: Can Lindsey Heaps and Lourdes Bosch control midfield against constant pressure? Can Carson Pickett and Kaleigh Kurtz handle elite attackers at altitude? Can Abby Smith be the stabilizing force through four straight road trips?
Plus: Why June's reset period matters more than you think, and how May's exposure builds the foundation for everything that follows.
