SYMMES TOWNSHIP, OH – A new USL W League season is set to begin for Kings Hammer FC Cincinnati as they play host to Racing Louisville FC Saturday, with kickoff slated for 7:00 p.m.
KHFC is more than familiar with Racing, having played them twice last season, with each respective team taking a win. This season though, the two squads will play three times– twice in Cincinnati and once in Louisville– meaning nine points are up for grabs.
Speaking of familiar faces, KHFC Head Coach Jacob Morrison returns for a second season at the helm after guiding the team to a (6-2-2) record in 2024. Those 20 points were good enough for second in the Valley Division, trailing only the 23 points posted by Indy Eleven.
Morrison is excited by the prospect of returning players including defender Natalie Bain of Xavier University, saying about Bain, “She’s an All-American at Xavier, just a fantastic athlete and a fantastic person. She’s so competitive and gets the job done when you need her to.”
Speaking about the team and the upcoming match, Bain said, “The team is going great so far, it’s always hard this early in the season with new faces coming in each practice, but I think we’re going great. It’s fun to be out here with everybody and the coaches, working hard.”
Bain and KHFC’s defense will have their work cut out for them as Louisville put nine goals past the Dayton Dutch Lions in a 9-0 rout in their season opener this past Wednesday.
Morrison is also excited about the potential of this team beyond just the defense, saying “I can tell you now there’s more. There’s so much more in this squad.”
While some players return, there are some newcomers, including KHFC’s home venue. After playing the 2024 home games at Scudamore Stadium, KHFC Cincinnati will now call their home the brand-new Lindner Family Sports Complex on the campus of Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy.
