The Washington Dutch Lions Fc women's team struggled the last two games of the season in both their games vs SJEB FC. Both teams competed on the last day of the 2021 season for the Conference Championship with the Lions coming out on top with a 1-0 loss. This year it was different and SJEB FC handed the Lions a 8-0 on July 1 and 4-0 loss ion July 8 finishing 2nd in the standings.
The Lions ended the season with a 2-5-0 record and 6 points ending 4th. Philadelphia Lone Star SC (3 points) and Athena Soccer Club (1 point) ended 5th and 6th. Penn Fusion SC won the regular season Championship with 21 points and SJEB FC finished 2nd with 16 points while CAFC Ospreys ended in 3rd place with 14 points.
Head Coach Michel Vanderhart was disappointed in the result this season after winning the Championship last year. He commented on the season: "Last year we simply had a few more players on the team that could make the difference. I cannot blame anyone, the girls all worked hard but we have some strong teams in this Conference."
