The Washington Freedom takes on the Atlanta Beat
on this Saturday, October 19 at Rice University
Track/Soccer Stadium. Pregame fan fest begins at 3 pm,

Blalock, at Fiesta on Bellaire at Hillcroft, at Soccer
Time in Pasadena or online at http://www.hwsa.org/.
Also on sale: soccer clinics for girls & women with
WUSA players on Saturday morning. For $35, you get a
one-hour clinic with 3 WUSA players, a Tshirt and a
ticket to the game. See http://www.hwsa.org/wusahouston.htm. Briana Scurry, Abby Wambach & Emmy
Barr are scheduled for the youth clinic; Nikki Serlenga,
Emily Burt and Carrie Moore will lead the adult clinic.
Don't wait til Saturday to buy your tickets -- the Rice
soccer venue is fairly cozy (5000) and about two-thirds
of the tickets have been sold, so there's a good chance
the game will sell out.

fish extra -- league-leading scorer Carlos "El
Pescadito” Ruiz. The game will air on ABC on Sunday,
October 20 at 12:30 pm CT. For details, see http://www.mlsnet.com/.
