Sacramento faces Crossfire Premier of Washington after its 3-0 first-round victory over Project51O on Wednesday night. The club enters the tournament as one of the eight National Premier Soccer League representatives after ending the 2022 season as NPSL runner-up.
Republic FC has played the Open Cup every year since the club's inception, posting an overall record of 19 wins and seven losses. In 2022, the club stepped into the national sports spotlight and made headlines around the soccer world when it became the first lower-division side to reach the tournament's Final in 14 years. The historic run was highlighted by three consecutive victories of MLS sides, including a thrilling Semifinal penalty shootout against four-time Open Cup Champion Sporting Kansas City in front of a sold-out crowd at Heart Health Park.
This year's tournament is the 108th edition of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup - U.S. Soccer's National Championship. The tournament has crowned a champion every year since 1914, except for 2020 and 2021 when play was suspended due to COVID-19. It is the oldest ongoing domestic soccer competition and is a single-game, knockout tournament that is open to all professional and amateur teams affiliated with U.S. Soccer.
