The Reign had plenty of near-misses on net on Friday, but thanks to one ball going in and the team suffocating the Stars on the other end, it was three points and a continuation of strong post-World Cup play.
The Reign still haven't scored a goal since late March, and after the loss to Washington, the team was torn in two directions between defensive optimism and attacking malaise.
Claudia Dickey set the Reign record for saves with the club and the back line worked overtime to make it happen, but the team lacked finishing in the final third as both Seattle and Denver walked away with a point.
The Reign seemingly took out their frustrations from their dreadful double-advantaged defeat in Portland last week, taking the Current to town in Spokane and showing what can happen when Seattle threads the needle between caution and aggression.
