The way these players are embracing and being embraced by this city is pure joy.
#SummitUp 🏔️🆙
An afternoon of #SummitUp women’s pro soccer and an evening of #GoAvsGo hockey! Let’s pick Makar for #AvsPsychic and Malinski for the long shot. A whole defensive vibe here
Great atmosphere. Wonderful setting. Merch lines were insane the entire match. #NWSL and the #DenverSummit are going to be just fine here! #SummitUp
#SummitUp 🏔️🆙
Welp, if I end up in Denver, I now have a team to enthusiastically support. #SummitUp
Lots of Abby Smith—who had a big game—on the Jumbotron.
Nick gave a long and animated post-game speech to a circled up Summit.
Captain Janine Sonis, on the microphone, addresses the historic crowd.
Vibes are a Mile High.

FINAL: Summit 0 | 0 Spirit
A fair result for two evenly matched teams.
Summit created lots of opportunities via Kössler & Ryan. Thomas a spark at the end.
Defensively, Summit kept Rodman quiet.
A Point on the Table and a Point in History.
What a Summit.

91’ Liv Sparks!
Thomas drives upfield off a pass from Sonis, passed it wide right to Brazier who puts a shot in but easily saved.
Ally had 3 defenders tracking her. Not a lot of options.

69’ Melissa Kössler streaking alone, then shoulder checks Tara Rudd back to DC!
Kössler puts a beautiful pass to the top of the six but no other Summit Players made the trip.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
The moment Colorado History was made. Largest crowd to watch a women’s sporting event. #SummitUp
The walkout. #SummitUp
55’ Tash Flint WATCH
Flint fires an absolute banger from 20 yards out that goes just wide of the post.
Game is heating up!

54’ Yazmeen Ryan with another opportunity. Nearly hits the cutback pass off the endline.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
50’ Spirit have their best chance yet as Rodman puts a low ball across the box, just barely out of touch from a sliding Cantore.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
49’ Meg Reid comes all the way up and gets a header chance at goal. Goes high.
Summit coming out aggressive.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
HALFTIME: Summit 0 | 0 Spirit
Nil-nil stalemate a fair result at half for two teams that are going back & forth.
Whomever breaks the dam first out of the locker room…
Now for Big Gigantic to perform at a big gigantic game before a big gigantic crowd.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
47’ Spirit go with the short corner themselves.
That move is all the rage these days.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
Enjoying the first home game for the Denver Summit! #SummitUp
45’ Guglielmo goes down in Summit’s box. Looks to try and milk contact with Ryan.
Ref isn’t buying it. Play continues.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
Great view #SummitUp
37’ Looks like Kössler takes a knock in the box. Play is paused to check her out.
Both teams take the opportunity to hydrate on this 75° March Denver Day.
#DENvWAS #SummitUp
33’ Yazmeen Ryan with another shot from left wing!
Tried to go top corner, near post. Easy save from Maciver gives Summit the first corner of the game for both teams.
Summit elects to go short and the play fizzles out.
