Bay FC defeat Portland Thorns 1-0 thanks to a strike from Alyssa Malonson in the 39th minute off a feed from Penelope Hocking. Her running goal in the first half accounted for the only score of the game. A second half attempt late in the game from Rachel Hill was called off from review by the officials. In the end it was defensive play and 5 saves from Jordan Silkowitz that preserved the win for the home team.
Abby Dahlkemper was honored before the match commemorating her 150th appearance in a NWSL league match. Former Bay FC midfielder Deyna Castellanos, who signed with the Thorns for this season did not suit up for the game.
Next up for Bay FC is a Friday Night Lights match at home against defending NWSL champions Orlando on June 13 at 7pm, while Portland heads home to host Washington on Sunday June 15 at 1pm.
