Key Milestones and Information

FC Tulsa set a new benchmark in last weekend's 3-0 victory over Lexington SC, reaching 50 points for the first time in club history and matching the club's single-season record of 14 wins, previously achieved in 2017 and 2021.

FC Tulsa are 11W-0L-3D when scoring first and have earned 20 points from losing positions, ranking third all-time in USL Championship history with a +14 points gained/points dropped differential, trailing only Phoenix Rising FC (2019, +17) and Louisville City FC (2019, +16).

Tulsa's victory over Lexington SC also guaranteed the city's first home playoff match in more than four decades, dating back to 1983.

The Scissortails claimed its eighth clean sheet of the season last Saturday in the 3-0 shutout against Lexington SC, anchored by the debut of goalkeeper Tyler Deric, who joined the squad as an emergency signing on September 26.

FC Tulsa has been a continuous presence at the top of the Western Conference since July 16, when a 2-1 home win over Monterey Bay FC lifted the team to first place - a position the Scissortails have held for 13 consecutive matches, more than any other team in the league. With a win this weekend and a Sacramento loss, FC Tulsa can clinch the #1 seed.

Midfielder Jamie Webber delivered a brace against Lexington SC, earning Man of the Match honors and a spot on the USL Championship Team of the Week. He became just the second FC Tulsa player this season to score a brace, joining Taylor Calheira, who notched two goals on April 19 at Las Vegas Lights FC in a 4-1 win.

Defender Lamar Batista surpassed 10,000 USL Championship regular season minutes last Saturday following his full 90-minute shift against Lexington SC, solidifying his place among the league's most dependable defenders.

Lucas Stauffer is now sitting at 99 USL Championship regular season appearances, setting the defender up to join the 100 club if he records any minutes this Saturday.
