The University of Washington's women's soccer team were humiliated last week after losing to a group of 14-year-old boys.
Last season the Washington Huskies finished as the sixth-ranked team in women's college soccer following an impressive run to the Elite Eight stage of the playoffs, with their 15-3-7 record going down as the best in program history.
Yet despite their incredible year in 2025, the Huskies were brought crashing down to earth after suffering an embarrassing defeat to Crossfire under-14 boys last Thursday.
The scrimmage took place in Seattle on April 30, and ended in a 2-1 victory for Crossfire - an elite club program based out of Redmond, Washington.
Losing to a team of boys aged 14 or younger comes as a major blow to the Huskies, while also fueling the argument of those who believe transgender women should not be allowed to compete in women's sports.
The Huskies are one of the nation's top women's soccer programs after making it the NCAA Tournament 18 times since their inception in 1990, while winning one regular season conference championship and a conference tournament title.
Last season, they won the Big Ten Women's College Soccer Tournament to earn a No 4 seed, before upsetting No 1 seeds Virginia in the Sweet 16. They were ultimately beaten by Duke in the Elite Eight.
Crossfire under-14's win over the Huskies is not the first time a group of younger boys has got the better of an older women's team.
Back in 2017, the US women's national team were convincingly beaten by the FC Dallas under-15s academy side while preparing for an international friendly.
The Swiss women's national team were also thrashed 7-1 by an under-15s team last summer.

Damn. The Dogs needed a couple or three of them men pretending to be chicks to win, I guess!
Yes, I have seen this level of mismatch in some AYSO games.
I think the Champions League final will be like that, regardless of whether it’s PSG or Bayern, Arsenal will get crushed.
Which makes sense given the girls coach was working to improve the team against other girls college teams where finding a competitive team for practice could not be found among the other girls competing teams in the area.
“Sorry mam.”
is anyone surprised?
“Boys will be boys. Wonder what smack talk was going on during that match?”
Something along the lines, “hey girls we have plenty of juice boxes to share during half time, and you are welcome to join us at Chucky Cheese after the match”
