It's a packed one this week, Blues fans. We open with the Annapolis Blues taking on Liga MX side Santos Laguna in front of 7,000+ midweek fans at NMCMS — a friendly that saw the full roster get run, including a chat with all-time leading scorer Brady Geho. The Blues dropped that one 2-0, but the experience alone was worth the price of admission.

No rest for the weary — next up was Bethesda SC, and what a rollercoaster: down 1-0 early, Matt Lenert levels, Kira sees red after a controversial double-yellow, the Blues claw back from 2-1 down to lead late… and somehow still finish 3-3 after a heartbreaking stoppage-time equalizer. Brutal. Beautiful. Very 2026 Blues.

Bella's got the women's side covered too — a Father's Day showdown against table-topping Virginia Development Academy that ended in a loss but came with a major silver lining (more on that below), plus interviews with both keepers, Caroline Duffy and Abby Makella.

Then the season finale doubleheader for the Lady Blues: a rain-soaked, 4-0 win to close things out, with Sabba Haghoo, Jolie Farmer, and Zoe Vadaurre dominating the back line. The women finish the year in 3rd place in the Chesapeake — and yes, they're the only team to hand VDA a loss all season. Bella breaks down the full standings and shares her thoughts on the year that was.

And then — the Old Bay Derby. Christos came to Annapolis fresh off beating us 1-0 in their building, jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the rain... and then the Blues happened. Brady Geho's hat-trick (his 20th goal of the season), goals from Ale and Tyler Gabara, and a late Matt Lenert penalty sealed a statement 6-2 win on six unanswered goals. The supporters' section was unhinged. As they should've been.

One home match left — July 11th. Let's pack the place out.

UP THE BLUES!
