ST. LOUIS ATHLETICA 2, RED STARS 0

Chicago posts 5-10-5 record to wrap up first WPS season

The Chicago Red Stars closed their inaugural Women's Professional Soccer season with a 2-0 loss to St. Louis Athletica on Wednesday night at Anheuser-Busch Soccer Park in Fenton, Mo.

Chicago out-shot St. Louis, 10-8, but only put two shots on goal to St. Louis' four. Christie Welsh scored both Athletica goals in the 34th and 64th minutes.

Red Stars midfielder Lindsay Tarpley, who recently earned her second WPS Player of the Week honor, did not play Wednesday night. She injured her knee earlier in the week and was unavailable against St. Louis.

The Red Stars finish with a 5-10-5 record, while St. Louis improves to 10-6-3.
