Greenville, SC – USL League One has announced the 2020 schedule for the Greenville Triumph, a slate that will feature three expansion teams, New England II, Inter Miami 2 and Omaha, bringing 11 opponents to the schedule for the new season. Greenville will face each club at least twice throughout the year and will play six three-game sets against League One opponents, including rival South Georgia Tormenta FC and reigning League One Champions North Texas SC. The home schedule also features two Sunday and two Thursday matches throughout the 14 league contests at Legacy Early College. To view the full 2020 schedule, click here.
Greenville Triumph SC opens its second season against the Chattanooga Red Wolves on March 27th at Legacy Early College. After opening last season on the road against Tormenta FC, the Triumph returned back home to a sell-out crowd of over 4,000 fans and notched their first-ever win in a 2-1 victory over Lansing Ignite.
Fans won’t have to wait long for a a rematch of the 2019 League One Final that saw Greenville fall to North Texas SC, as the defending champions make their way to the Upstate on April 26th for the first of three matches between the clubs. Familiar match-ups will be meshed with new ones, as three expansion clubs have been added to the League One slate. Greenville will travel to Gillette Stadium for the first time to face New England II on April 11th, with Triumph SC hosting fellow newcomers Omaha and Inter Miami 2 in May to wrap up the first ten games of the regular season.
The summer months will see a mixture of home and away matches that includes a trip to Tucson, Arizona on July 25th. For many Triumph fans, Tucson was home to a seminal moment of the inaugural season, with Greenville clinching its first playoff birth in a 3-2 stoppage time victory where Chris Bermudez scored on an open Tucson net in the 94th minute.
Greenville gets a three-match series against the Richmond Kickers as they look to reclaim the Bon Secours Cup from the Virginia side. Richmond became the first club to claim the cup with a 1-0 home win last September. The teams will meet up April 18th and June 20th in Richmond before shifting south to the Upstate for a July 31st matchup.
The longest stretch of away matches comes in the latter third of the season, but features a match in neighboring Georgia on September 5th to round out the three game series against Tormenta FC. Following the club’s longest road swing of the season, Greenville will return home to face New England II on September 25th and close out the regular season a week later with a home match Inter Miami 2 on October 2nd.
