The draw for the second round pairings for the Open Cup took place earlier today, giving every first round participant the opponents they'll face should they win their first game. Teams from the second division USL Championship enter the tournament in the Second Round this year, including three teams from Texas and two from Oklahoma.

Texas has 9 teams competing in this year's tournament, a new record for the state.

OKC Energy FC will host the winner of the game between NTX Rayados and Little Rock Rangers at the University of Oklahoma's John Crain Field.

San Antonio FC will host the winner of Laredo Heat SC and Brazos Valley Cavalry FC at Toyota Field.

Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC will host the winner between Midland-Odessa Sockers FC and FC Denver.

El Paso Locomotive FC will host the winner of the game between the two participants from Wisconsin, Forward Madison FC and Milwaukee Bavarian SC, meaning one of those teams will have some very lengthy travel for the second round.

Austin Bold FC will play Tulsa Roughnecks FC, and Phoenix Rising FC will play New Mexico United FC.

Second round games will be played across Tuesday, May 14, and Wednesday, May 15, with the schedule due to be announced following the completion of the first round's games on May 8.
