LA Galaxy will be returning to Cary for the Third Round of the 100th Lamar Hunt U.S. Open.

The ‘Hawks won the right right to face Los Angeles with a 3-1 victory over the Carolina Dynamo.

In 2012, the RailHawks hosted MLS Champion, LA Galaxy, in the Third Round of the competition in front of a sold-out crowd at WakeMed Soccer Park, who were entertained with a RailHawks 2-1 victory.  In the Fourth Round, the RailHawks hosted Chivas USA (MLS) but were ousted when Chivas USA converted a second half stoppage time penalty kick.

In NASL play this year, the Railhawks currently sit in second place with a record of 3-2-1 behind the Atlanta Silverbacks. At home, the ‘Hawks are 3-0-0 in NASL play.
