Ashley Hatch flirted with a hat trick for the Washington Spirit, while Bay FC had a pair of goals waved off and fell Friday night, 2-0.

Hatch headed home both her goals in a three-minute span in the first half, providing all the firepower Washington needed to hand Bay FC (1-1-1) its first defeat of the season.

The Spirit (2-0-1) opened a 1-0 advantage in the 24th minute, with an assist from Leicy Santos, and extended it to 2-0 in the 27th minute after Narumi Miura was awarded a free kick on a foul by Asisat Oshoala and found Hatch, who used her head again to best goalkeeper Jordan Silkowitz.

“We knew we could get the ball wide and get some crosses in,” Hatch told the Amazon Prime broadcast after the game.

Hatch’s opening strike ended a 191-minute shutout streak for Bay FC, which had been one of three clubs to hold both its first two opponents to one goal or fewer.

Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury also let a pair of shots past her but instead handed Bay FC its first shutout of the season.

Trailing 2-0 at halftime, coach Albertin Montoya made a pair of substitutions looking to boost Bay’s offensive attack that looked to pay off in the 59th minute when Racheal Kundananji, one of the second-half subs, cleared the way for rookie Taylor Huff to streak up the middle of the field.

Huff, who will join the U.S. Women’s Under-23 National Team next week, found the back of the net for what would have been the first goal of her NWSL career. But it was waved off upon review, as officials called Kundananji for a foul for taking Gabrielle Carle to the ground.

Bay FC appeared to get on the board again in the 87th minute, when Oshoala converted a cross from Huff but was whistled offsides.

Bay FC fell to 0-4 all-time vs. the Spirit.

Deion gets new deal >> Deion Sanders brought back the glitter — and the wins — to a downtrodden program in just two seasons, and for that, the Colorado Buffaloes rewarded the charismatic coach with a contract extension through the 2029 season that makes him the highest-paid football coach in the Big 12 Conference and among the most lucratively compensated across the country.

The school said Friday the extension increases Sanders’ yearly base salary to $10 million this year. The deal was reached with three years remaining on Sanders’ existing five-year, $29.5 million deal he signed when he was brought in from Jackson State.

Harbaugh extended >> The Baltimore Ravens extended coach John Harbaugh’s contract by three years, taking him through the 2028 season.

The 62-year-old Harbaugh is the Ravens’ all-time winningest coach with a 172-104 record over 17 seasons, not including going 13-11 in the playoffs.

He is the second-longest tenured active coach, behind Mike Tomlin, who has been with the Pittsburgh Steelers coach for 18 years, and was entering the final year of his existing deal.

Diggs introduced >> Stefon Diggs said he believes he still has plenty to offer as the 31-year-old wide receiver was introduced by the Patriots after signing a three-year, $69 million deal with New England.

“I look forward to getting back on track,” said Diggs, who posted six straight 1,000-year receiving seasons before tearing his right ACL last October, ending his lone season in Houston with 47 receptions for 496 yards and three touchdowns in only eight games.

Asked about the status of his rehabilitation after undergoing surgery on the knee, the four-time Pro Bowler deemed himself on track to get back to the field.

“Right now I’m ahead of schedule and trying to stay ahead of schedule,” he said. “We’ll keep playing it by ear. ... Stay healthy and the rest will take care of itself.”

Scheffler ties course record >> Scottie Scheffler opened with two straight birdies and was on his way in the Houston Open, tying the Memorial Park course record he set in 2021 with an 8-under 62 for a one-shot lead among the early starters Friday.

It was the most complete round of the year for Scheffler, who missed the first month of the season recovering from a glass puncture in his right palm that required minor surgery.

The only green he missed was on No. 2 — his 11th of the round — and he holed that from just inside 30 feet for birdie.
