For the Shreveport United men’s and women’s team, this was supposed to be a homecoming weekend as the two teams had planned a doubleheader at Messmer Stadium to boost the teams out of NM ?some recent slumps.

The results were the Shreveport United women had to postpone their match to a later date. Shreveport United men had to wait until Sunday afternoon and came up short. Blue Goose pushed their start time to almost 9 pm. Mother Nature 1-0 win over Shreveport/Bossier soccer.
