Lynn Williams makes statement with second consecutive brace

Lynn Williams is on a scoring hot streak.

With her two goals against the Thorns on Saturday night, Williams has now scored four goals in four days. The Courage striker’s impressive offensive performance comes on the heels of her inclusion as an alternate on the USWNT’s Olympics roster.

Williams first got on the score sheet against Portland in the 57^th minute, knocking a corner into the back post to give the Courage a 1-0 lead.
