DOMINATION! FC Gold Pride 2010 WPS Champions!
All I can say is that the playoff break had no negative effect on the Pride as they steamrolled through the Philadelphia Independence 4-nil to win the 2010 WPS Championship. Marta ended the season with 20 goals! Congratulations FC Gold Pride!!!!!

Pride Ends The Regular Season With A Roar!
What can I say? The Pride cap off the season with a victory over Philadelphia today 4-1 on the Pioneer Stadium pitch. It has been an amazing season - the Pride went from the bottom to the top in one season. Yes - Marta was a great addition, but it was the entire team that did this. Watching them play today was poetry in motion. This is a REAL team!
