SAN JOSE, Calif. (Oct. 3, 2025) – The National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) today announced that Bay FC defender Caprice Dydasco has been named to the September NWSL Best XI of the Month, presented by Amazon Prime. The selection is Dydasco’s second this season to the league’s monthly top squad after earning recognition on the June Best XI of the Month earlier this season.
Dydasco was one of the league’s top performers across four September contests. She finished the month in the top five among defenders in duels won (22), recoveries (22) and clearances (31), helping Bay FC dispel threats with regularity against some of the league’s top teams. Her assist of forward Racheal Kundananji’s goal Sept. 13 at Orlando earned a nomination for Assist of the Week and helped her club secure a point against the defending league champions. One of six ironwomen in the NWSL this season, Dydasco hasn’t missed a minute for Bay FC, starting and playing 90 minutes in all 22 regular season matches.
The NWSL Best XI of the Month, presented by Amazon Prime, is selected by the NWSL Media Association, a collection of writers that cover the league on a consistent basis, and the NWSL’s on-air broadcast talent.
Following consecutive home matches, Bay FC sets out on the road for back-to-back trips to the Pacific Northwest starting this weekend. The club visits Portland Thorns FC at Providence Park Saturday, Oct. 4, with kickoff at 7 p.m. PT. The match will close out a NWSL doubleheader on ION with Maura Sheridan and Jordan Angeli on the call. The club returns to PayPal Park for its final 2025 home match Friday, October 17 when North Carolina Courage visits the Bay Area.
