U.S. Soccer has announced the third-round possible pairings and locations for the 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Results from the second round of play next Tuesday, May 22, will determine the matchups for the third round taking place one week later on Tuesday, May 29. The 99th edition of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup includes a random selection process for determining home teams from the first round through the quarterfinals among clubs that have applied to host. 

The Harrisburg City Islanders and Philadelphia Union, the club’s MLS affiliate, have announced plans to play an exhibition match on Tuesday, June 12 at 7 p.m. at Hersheypark Stadium, Hershey, PA. This will be the third game played between the two clubs since the teams became official partners in March 2010. The partnership between the two clubs is a unique one and a clear bridge has formed between the two sides, as a handful of players have joined the Union after playing in Harrisburg, including Sheanon Williams and Chase Harrison.

USL PRO announced its Team of the Week for the sixth week of the 2012 season today, honoring Rochester Rhinos goalkeeper Kristian Nicht as Player of the Week after he extended his shutout streak to six games with an outstanding 10-save performance on Saturday night against the Charleston Battery at Blackbaud Stadium. Nicht, who has yet to concede a goal as the Rhinos have tied the USL PRO record with six consecutive victories to start a season, was remarkable against the Battery.

The Harrisburg City Islanders will welcome their cross-state rivals the Pittsburgh Riverhounds on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. to Skyline Sports Complex in Harrisburg, Pa. The game will be the first of three matches this season between the two teams and will be the lone contest in Harrisburg, as the City Islanders and Riverhounds will meet twice in Pittsburgh in July. The two clubs split the season series in 2011, with each team winning their respective home match.

The Pittsburgh Riverhounds (2-5-0) have suffered four straight losses and look to get back on track with two games in three days. The Riverhounds travel to the State Capital to square off with the Harrisburg City Islanders (1-1-2) on Wednesday for the first meeting of the 2012 Keystone Derby. The Riverhounds then return to Pittsburgh for a Friday night match up at Chartiers Valley against the Richmond Kickers (1-2-3).

The Rochester Rhinos will induct Craig Demmin, Doug Miller and Pat Onstad into their Hall of Fame in the Class of 2012.

The Rochester Rhinos Hall of Fame Night will be on Saturday, June 30th as the club hosts the Harrisburg City Islanders. Each Hall of Fame inductee will also be honored with a limited-edition bobblehead during the 2012 season.
