L.A. WPS Franchise Name Unveiled Sunday
I mentioned this in a column earlier this month, but officials with the Carson-based Women's Professional Soccer franchise confirmed today the team's name, logo and colors will be unveiled at Sunday's final Galaxy home game of the season.
U.S. Women's National Team star Shannon Boxx (South High), who will play for the team, will be on hand to help with the unveiling.
I'll have more Sunday.

The "Stars" with Galaxy colors...My prediction of course. LOL
Thanks for the Info !
Looking forward to the WPS as a whole.
Kinda cool I'll be there in person for the unveiling, since usually I'd be on the other side of the Atlantic pond.
So.... What about Marta? Any word if she plans on coming here to play?
Nick replies: I'll ask for an update Sunday.
