Greenville, SC - The Greenville Triumph Soccer Club's second round match of the U.S. Open Cup will take place on Thursday, April 7th at 7:00 PM, the club announced today. Greenville is one of seven League One clubs to draw an opponent from the USL's top division in the second round of the tournament. Both leagues enter the bracket-style tournament after the first round, which is solely comprised of amateur and semi-professional clubs.

The tournament, which began in 1913, features teams from all amateur and professional leagues in the United States. Should Greenville advance beyond their second round matchup against Oakland, the club could travel to or welcome a Major League Soccer club in the next round.

Triumph SC has competed in one prior Open Cup - the 2019 edition of the tournament during the club's inaugural season. They hosted fellow League One side South Georgia Tormenta FC in the second round, with Anderson native Cole Seiler scoring a late goal to seal a 1-0 win. GTSC welcomed the USL Championship's Charleston Battery in the third round, leading 1-0 before allowing two late goals to the Battery in a loss. Charleston would lose to Atlanta United in the following round. Greenville was set to host New Mexico United in the 2020 tournament before its' cancellation.

Single match tickets for the Open Cup match and all League One Matches are due to go on sale in early March. Greenville Triumph's match against Oakland Roots Soccer Club will be broadcast live on ESPN+.
