STATESBORO, Ga. - South Georgia Tormenta FC will kick off its 2022 USL League One season against North Carolina FC this Saturday, April 2 at 7:30 p.m. ET. Professional soccer returns to Statesboro with a reenergized squad under the helm of Head Coach Ian Cameron who looks to start the season off with a win.

Saturday marks the start of Tormenta FC's fourth professional season in USL League One. The team looks to continue its form after an undefeated preseason with three wins and two draws against USL Championship sides Tampa Bay Rowdies and Atlanta United 2, along with three of the region's top collegiate programs.

The 2022 offseason was a busy one for Tormenta FC as the club made numerous eye-catching moves to solidify the squad for the upcoming season with six players returning. With the additions of Kazaiah Sterling, Tobias Otieno and Jake Dengler to name a few, the team seeks a more successful start of the season than 2021. Cameron is confident in the team he built during the offseason and will have his first test against an improved side in North Carolina FC this Saturday.

North Carolina FC enters the season coming off of a 7-17-4 record in 2021. During the off-season, NCFC has made several roster changes, including the addition of Nicholás Molina, USL League Two's 2021 Most Valuable Player. Additionally, familiar faces will return to Erk Russell Park as NCFC added former TFC defender Jordan Skeltonto its backline. Key returns to the team include midfielders Pecka Martinez and Nelson Martinez, along with defender Max Flick.
