By winning the Top Town Video Challenge, Price received a trip for two to the WPS Inaugural Match in April 2009.

The Top Town Video Challenge asked fans to submit a video answering the questions, “Why is your WPS city tops? And what makes it a great soccer town?” Fans without a WPS team in their area were encouraged to explain why their city should host a WPS team.

We would like to thank everyone that participated, your videos were excellent. We hope you continue to spread excitement for WPS!!!
