[WPS] The Philadelphia Independence is on the move. After one season at West Chester University, the Women's Professional Soccer team is moving to Leslie Quick Stadium on the campus of Widener University.

As an expansion team, the Independence finished third in the WPS and reached the league championship game, but it averaged only 2,938 fans a game.

An announcement of the move to Quick Stadium, which seats 4,500, is expected on Thursday.

    Glad to hear they are moving. I live in New Jersey. West Chester, PA was just to far away for me to drive. Widener is 40 minutes away from my home and minutes away from the Philadelpia Union stadium.
