Coming Home Again
Orange County SC returns to Championship Soccer Stadium to face Tacoma Defiance on July 6 at 7pm in Irvine on Back to Business Night.
OCSC, unbeaten in their last six matches, will try to extend that streak with a new look lineup against a speedy and youthful Tacoma squad. OCSC fell to Tacoma 1-0 in Washington to open the 2021 USL Championship season back in May.
Make it Rain
With leading scorer Ronaldo Damus out on international duty with Haiti, OCSC used goals from Eero Markkanen and Eric Calvillo to defeat in-form hosts Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC on a rainy Thursday evening 6,035 feet above sea level. Sean McTague, a 17-year-old OC native, made his professional debut after signing a USL Pro Academy contract earlier that week.
Keep it One Hundred Percent
After 16 months of playing behind closed doors in front of cardboard cutouts and to a limited capacity, OCSC will finally be able to play in front of a full Championship Soccer Stadium during Tuesday's game against Tacoma. Throughout the summer, fans will be a part of "The New Family Game Night" packed with promotions such as Firework Nights, Beer Fests and Car Shows.
