Fusion Earns Berth Into U.S. Open Cup
Ventura County Star
By Joe Curley
The Ventura County Fusion men’s soccer team continues to break new ground.
The Fusion achieved one of its biggest goals of the new season late Saturday when it clinched the first U.S. Open Cup berth in franchise history when the Los Angeles Legends lost to the Ogden Outlaws.
The result means the defending Premier Development League champion will be the lone Southwest Division team entered into the May 31 draw for the first round of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, which will be played June 15.
“We’ve achieved a lot in our first three years of existence, particularly last season,” said Fusion general manager Ranbir Shergill. “This year, we wanted to achieve something we haven’t done yet.
“One of the biggest goals for this season was to get into the Open Cup and bring an MLS team to Ventura to play a game that really means something.”
The fusion could be drawn against MLS or United Soccer League opposition.
“it really depends on the luck of the draw,” said Shergill.
