VOTE NOW AT: NEVADASOCCERVOTE.COM After a week of passionate voting from Nevada soccer fans both in the north and south, the overwhelming response warranted a final round of input. Finalists for the name of the upcoming series between Lights FC and Nevada's Other FC include options from both last week's vote, plus options that were submitted by fans via write-ins. There are four finalists for both the name of the upcoming season series and the trophy the annual series winner will claim. Voting on both will be left completely up to the fans of both teams in the state via an independent web site arranged by both clubs. Fans can vote at nevadasoccervote.com until midnight on Sunday, March 18. The official series name, trophy and sponsor of the series will be announced next week, prior to the March 24 showdown. The finalists for both categories are as follows: SERIES NAME FINALISTS Battle Born Cup Copa Nevada Casino Classico Silver State Cup TROPHY CONCEPT FINALISTS Traditional Soccer "Cup" (silver nuggets in silver cup with State of Nevada logo on it) Big Horn Sheep Skull (winning club paints in its colors annually) Large Oversided Poker Chip (approx. two feet in diameter) Roulette Wheel (winning club paints the year it wins in its color annually) The first United Soccer League (USL) regular season home match in Lights FC history comes on Saturday, March 24th, at 8 p.m. at Cashman Field, with Nevada’s Other FC making the trip south for the first meeting. The second and third meetings – Aug. 28 and Sept. 22, respectively – take place up north. “In the state of Nevada, there are two soccer teams – Las Vegas Lights FC and them – and that is very good for the game of soccer,” Lights FC head coach Chelís said. “The number one team is Las Vegas Lights FC, the number two is them. This great truth will be confirmed by Lights FC on March 24th at Cashman Field.” “First we win Nevada, then we win USL – Those are our club’s top on-field priorities,” Lights FC Owner & CEO Brett Lashbrook said. For Lights FC, the first match in the series will be only the club’s second regular season game in history, as the team opens on the road on Saturday, March 17, at Fresno FC. Nevada’s Other FC is entering its second USL season. They did OK, we guess, last season, finishing 17-7-8 and 3rd in the USL Western Conference. They happened to luck their way into the conference quarterfinals before experiencing the crushing sensation of defeat.
