Bay FC (2W-2D-3L; 8pts) closes out a two-match road swing with a Mother’s Day matinee this weekend at league leader Kansas City Current (5W-0D-2L; 15pts). Kickoff is set for Sunday, May 11 at 9:50 a.m. PT, with the match broadcast on ESPN.
The club takes to KC following a heartbreaker at San Diego in Week 7. A stoppage time winner in the 95th minute turned what looked destined to end as a 1-1 draw into a San Diego victory. Despite the result, Bay FC was still in position to claim a result for the third straight week. A wide open first half saw San Diego score just six minutes in, before Bay FC equalized in the 18th minute off the boot of Karlie Lema – the Morgan Hill native’s second goal of the season.
Jordan Silkowitz came up with a big save before the half-hour mark, denying the hosts from the penalty spot, the first penalty save of her NWSL career. The stop marked the 12th occurrence of a penalty save by an NWSL goalkeeper on their first penalty faced, and earned a nomination for Save of the Week, Silkowitz’s third of the 2025 season.

Last Meeting: Kansas City took each of the two matchups between the sides in 2024. A 5-2 result favored Kansas City April 20, with the hosts finding the net twice before halftime and three times after. Bay FC scored on either side of the break, with defender Kayla Sharples scoring in the 17th minute and Tess Boade registering her first of three tallies on the season in the 78th. The two clubs’ October matchup at PayPal Park was tightly contested, decided by a 1-0 scoreline. Bay FC held the possession advantage, but a shot hit with impressive pace by Temwa Chawinga from distance in the 35th minute would stand as the winner. Catch the highlights below.
