The Swope Park Rangers will start the defense of their 2-16 USL Western Conference Championship at home against the Oklahoma City Energy FC. It’s the first of three straight home games to kick off the 2017 season.
Things look to be a bit tougher in 2017 than they were last year, despite this being the clubs second year in existence. The USL realigned the conferences, adding Reno 1868 FC to the West and moving Saint Louis FC to the East. The move will drop the number of games against St. Louis from four to just a single road game on August 5th.
