With the 4-0 win for Ballard FC. We have the final #USOC2027 priority standings for USL League Two. The top 6 teams from this table + the league's playoff champion will be invited to receive a bye to the tournament proper.
The critical USL-2 match that just kicked off for the Northwest title between @goballardfc.bsky.social and Snohomish United will also serve as a nearly #WinAndYoureIn match for #USOC2027. The scenario: Any Ballard win or 2+ goal Snohomish win puts them into 7th place on this table.
A few more regular seasons have finished for USL League Two teams, including Lionsbridge FC dropping a 1-2 home defeat which drops them out of contention for all but the USL-2 champion slot in #USOC2027. Live look at the table. Top 7 are guaranteed to be invited to 1st round.
You might have missed the announcement, depending on how much of a @opencup.ussoccer.com sicko you are, but yesterday US Soccer announced the schedule and rules for Open Division qualifying for the 2027 USOC and, in doing so, showed which leagues it values. www.protagonistsoccer.com/coverage/uso...
