The USL Super League is shifting to a Spring-to-Fall league model in 2027 To account for this, the Super League will play a 2026 Fall Season with 14 matches for each of the league's 8 teams during the regular season, followed by a 4-team playoff Lexington Sporting Club are the reigning champions

🏆Champions! Lexington SC completed its season in a scene that would have been difficult to imagine a year ago: players sprinting onto the field, a home crowd celebrating a championship, and a team that had gone from the bottom of the table to the top of the league lifting the trophy.

Hearing more confirmation from folks that Spokane Zephyr will fold from the USL Super League, including that players and staff have already been informed. Sad news.

Lexington SC has claimed the 2025/26 #GainbridgeSuperLeague Players' Shield after a dramatic late victory against Tampa Bay Sun FC and Carolina Ascent FC's 3-1 win against Sporting Club Jacksonville earned LSC its first silverware. More Details -> www.gainbridgesuperleague.com/news/2026/05...

It's the final weekend of the USL Super League's second regular season. Sporting Jacksonville is in position to win the Shield. Lexington, Carolina, and Dallas currently occupy the other playoff positions, but Spokane is still alive. Scenarios:

LEX GO! Welcome to Lexington, keep!

A year after sliding out of the playoffs down the stretch, Lexington SC has gone big in rebuilding the spine of its #USL-C squad. After Phillip Goodrum's arrival via a second six-figure transfer fee this offseason, there's going to be pressure to deliver. www.uslchampionship.com/news_article...

Lexington SC’s offseason has been unlike anything we’ve seen in USL. 💰 The 1st six-figure intra-league transfer in league history (Aaron Molloy) 💰 The *2nd* six-figure intra-league transfer in league history (Philip Goodrum) Plus key adds like Semmle. Fascinating investment in the 2nd division.

Sources: Former Philadelphia Union goalkeeper Oliver Semmle is signing with Lexington (USL Championship). Semmle, 27, made 18 appearances for the Union first team and seven for Union II, adding veteran experience to a win-now roster. Cc: @usltactics.com, @joeclowery.bsky.social #doop #lexgo

Lexington SC has acquired forward Phillip Goodrum from @loucity.com for a six-figure transfer fee including conditional clauses which could see the transaction become the highest between two #USLC clubs in league history. www.uslchampionship.com/news_article...

Let’s get those goals flowing!!!!

Sources: Lexington SC has signed Phillip Goodrum from Louisville City. Goodrum, 28, joins Lexington after 44 appearances, 18 goals, and two assists for Louisville over 2,461 minutes. Of note, Lexington and Louisville face each other to open the USL Championship season on March 6. #lexgo #doop

🇸🇳 Sources: NCAA standout Junior Diouf has an offer from Anderlecht. Diouf was a freshman with Grand Canyon University this year. Would have been one of the top picks at SuperDraft if he made himself draft eligible.

Lexington SC has acquired four-time #USL-C All-League First Team selection Aaron Molloy via transfer from the Charleston Battery. The record-setting transaction marks the first six-figure intraleague transfer fee in league history. www.uslchampionship.com/news_article...

Undaunted. Undefeated. Now let’s select your Player of the Match! www.instagram.com/stories/cran...

$135!?!!?!? Yeah I’m sorry you can’t be charging that much, especially since the kit goes for $95 on the website

Santa told me we’ve been such good fans that we’re getting a dub at the Stables to finish 2025! 🎅 #LexGo

Banger home kits too

Now THAT is a home opener!!!

1) How long did it take MLS to reach that? 2) What are MLS' revenues compared to USL's? Guarantee it is more than 2x by a wide margin. So to have only 2x the minimum salary *is* embarrassing, but for MLS, not USL.

ICYMI: @theuslshow.bsky.social talked to Rob Vincent about all things Riverhounds. Go check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHIa...

Midfield is looking NICE! Welcome Luis!!!

Sources: Talks between the USL and the USL Players Association on a new CBA for players in the USL Championship are continuing. As part of this, the USL has proposed a set of minimum salaries for the new Division I league scheduled to begin play in 2028. www.espn.com/soccer/story...

Huge thanks to Coach Boss for his time with our club. Us fans are grateful for everything and wishing you the best! www.lexsporting.com/news/lexingt...

When you’re at the top, everyone brings their A-game. Lucky for us we have a squad determined to always find a way. And that’s just what Addie McCain did when she buried a late-game PK to pull back a point, extending our record-breaking unbeaten streak! #LexGo

Great get to retool our back line! Welcome to Lexington, Arturo!!!!

Let’s get this thing started. 😎

Saturday saw Lexington Sporting Club make history, yet again! Hear from Coach Mac, Taylor Aylmer, & Addie McCain after a late game PK helped us secure a point to remain undefeated & extend the league record! youtu.be/VIlty-2LiB0

Even when we’re down we’re NEVER out! #LexGo
