In an improvement from their debut match, West Seattle Rhodies FC scored a win Sunday against Eugene, Oregon’s Lane United FC, 2-0. The Rhodies’ second match saw good attendance, albeit less than their debut.
Two new additions for Sunday’s match were inflatable cheering sticks and pink, Rhodies-themed color spray, to use when the team scores a goal. “We didn’t get the chance to use it last time, but expect to see a lot more of it in the future,” said chief marketing officer Marissa Villegas.
Lower attendance didn’t diminish the crowd’s enthusiasm as Nicole, a Rhodies self-proclaimed “superfan,” brought along a flag, one of many seen at the match.
The Rhodies’ next two matches, against Olympia FC and a rematch against Lane United, will take them away from their home field at Nino Cantu Southwest Athletic Complex. They’ll be back in West Seattle on June 8th, then returning for their final two matches at home on the 25th and 28th. To learn more about Rhodies FC, and to purchase tickets to future games, go here.
