The Owls are flying high, but they can’t let up now. Not only is this match a top four showdown, but a playoff rematch; Union Omaha will be looking to avenge their penalty kick defeat to FC Naples in last season’s playoff quarterfinals. They’re carrying some solid momentum into this weekend, though: the club hasn’t lost in the league since mid-April, and hasn’t lost a league match at home since 2025. Plus, a close-knit affair against New York Cosmos on Wednesday was decided late on with Kempes Tekiela scoring a 94th minute winner. Tekiela, who was One Knoxville SC’s all-time leading goalscorer, couldn’t have picked a grander time for his 20th career USL League One goal.
ABOUT FC NAPLES
FC Naples were historic in 2025, becoming the first expansion team to host a playoff match in their inaugural season. Their journey ended at the hands of eventual champions One Knox SC, however, and they may not want to see Kempes Tekiela again given that he scored the lone goal in the Florida outfit’s 1-0 semifinals defeat. Still, this is a defensively stout team with five clean sheets out of eleven league matches thus far, and teams like them have often been content to sit back and soak up the Owls’ pressure before striking on the counterattack. And while they were always going to
be hard-pressed to replace 2025 All-League First Team forward Karsen Henderlong, Christopher Garcia has stepped in admirably thus far, with 3
goals & 3 assists leading Naples in both respects.
CANCER AWARENESS NIGHT
Tonight is our Cancer Awareness Night, presented by XCancer. Most notable in our proceedings is our game-worn jersey auction, with proceeds going towards the XCancer Foundation for cancer research.
Tables for the auction will be set up by the main gate at Section 105. Bidding will begin when gates open at 6pm, while bidding ends at the 70th minute of the match. You may increase bids by minimum increments of $5; individual players’ jerseys will start at $50 while a team-signed jersey begins at $75. To buy the jersey outright, you can bid $350 for individual players’ jerseys or $500 for the team-signed one.
Winners are required to be at the table after the 70th minute, so please be available for contact via phone and/or email. Winners will then complete their payments via PayPal. At match’s end, they will be escorted to the field entry point to receive their signed jersey from the player.
