The 2022 NWSL season ran from 7 May 2022 to 2 October 2022, following the 2022 NWSL Challenge Cup.[1]
Season
The Dash started the season taking part in the 2022 NWSL Challenge Cup. Houston finished in 4th place in Central Division with 2 wins and 4 losses.[2] On 27 April 2022 the team suspended coach James Clarkson for allegations of discrimination, harassment, and abuse, based on an investigation started by the NWSL and NWSLPA the prior season.[3] The Houston Dash appointed assistant coach Sarah Lowdon as acting head coach. The Dash went on a six game unbeaten streak during Lowdon’s tenure including a 2-0 away win at the Portland Thorns and a 5-0 win at home against the Orlando Pride with Nichelle Prince scoring the club’s first hat trick. On 15 June 2022, the Dash appointed Amorós as the club's new interim head coach pending visa approval.[4] Amorós would not join the team until 12 July while waiting for his visa.[5][6] In his first match managing the dash on 16 July, with newly acquired striker Ebony Salmon scoring a hat-trick, the Dash under Amorós defeated the Chicago Red Stars 4–1.[7]
On 24 August 2022, the Dash hired former NWSL player Alex Singer as general manager.[8]
