With a shot at the W-League playoffs on the line, the Colorado Force put it all together Friday
night.
Nikki Marshall scored two goals as the Colorado Force kept its playoff hopes alive with a 2-1
win over the L.A. Legends on Tuesday night in Chino, Calif.
The Force, 3-2-6 overall, improved to 15 points in the W-League's Western Conference and climbed
into a second-place tie with Seattle.
Seattle, 3-0-6, has three matches to play, all on the road, beginning with a match Wednesday
night against the Ventura County.

road trip tonight against league-leading Pali Blues.

The Colorado Force hopes to extend its four-match unbeaten streak when it hosts the Los Angeles
Legends at 7 p.
The Colorado Force will attempt to win its first game of the season tonight as Brazilians
Fabiane Nascimento and Paula Pires and the rest of the Ventura County Fusion visits the Loveland
Sports Park.
Pires played for Brazil's U-20 national team in the U-20 World Cup last fall, a tournament that
also featured Force midfielder Nikki Marshall.
The Colorado Force was missing some heavy hitters Sunday against the defending W-League
champions.
Central defender Carly Peetz was invited to train with the U.S. U-23 national team.
Shay Powell hurt her left knee last week in a 2-2 tie with the Real Colorado Cougars; she wanted
to play in Sunday's matinee against the Pali Blues, but the Force kept her out of the game as a
precaution.
After recording 1-0 home losses to Seattle last week, the Colorado Force and Real Colorado
Cougars prepare to meet twice in four days in W-League fixtures.
The home-and-home dates start at 7 p.m. Thursday with Hawaiian shirt night at Loveland Sports
Park; the second leg is scheduled for 1 p.

Michelle French scored in the 32nd minute as the Seattle Sounders began a two-game road swing
through the Centennial State with a 1-0 victory over the Colorado Force on Wednesday at the
Loveland Sports Park.
