TULSA, Okla. (July 9, 2015) - Orange County Blues FC began their two-game road trip to Oklahoma in Tulsa on Thursday night, dropping the contest to Tulsa Roughnecks FC, 4-1.

Didier Crettenand scored his seventh goal of the season, but it wasn't enough for Orange County. Tulsa's Christian Mata scored first in the 33rd minute, and Crettenand's strike in the 43rd minute, off a ball from Chris Cortez, equalized just before halftime.
