For the first time since last summer, Lane United FC was back out on the Civic Park pitch as the club hosted Open Tryouts for the upcoming USL League Two season. A total of 42 players registered for the two-day tryouts, which spanned three sessions across this past Saturday and Sunday, and the footballers were greeted by sunny weather as they stepped onto the turf field in South Eugene for the opening session. 

On the heels of the news that Head Coach John Galas has “come home” to Lane United, the club has another huge announcement regarding the coaching staff: after nearly two years away from Lane United, the organization is thrilled to share that Conner Cappelletti is returning as the lead Assistant Coach. 

Lane United FC is bringing back a familiar face. The club has officially announced that the team’s original head coach, John Galas, is coming back for the 2022 Season. 

With the start of a new year comes another edition of the Lower League eCup. Former Lane United FC coach Conner Cappelletti makes his return to the competition representing Lane United in Xbox Premier Division Group A, after finishing third in his group in the 2021 eCup. Joining Conner is newcomer Daniel “DLO” López, playing in PlayStation Premier Division Group B.

Lane United FC’s Albert Escuin, Henry Cromack, and Jose Carlos Gonzalez were all named to the 2021 USL League Two Western Conference Team of the Year this week. Team of the Year selections were voted on by each club.
