USL League One resumes its fourth U.S. Open Cup participation following a record-setting First Round that saw the league lead all other leagues in total wins and win percentage. The 11 First Round victories and 92% win percentage are both League One records in an opening U.S. Open Cup round, topping the previous record of 8-3 (73%) when 11 League One clubs entered in the Second Round of the 2022 U.S. Open Cup.
Notable Second Round matchups involving League One clubs include first-place Knoxville and second-place Greenville facing off in the third all-League One U.S. Open Cup match, Spokane hosting a U.S. Open Cup match for the first time, Omaha battling USL League Two power Des Moines Menace in a rematch of the clubs' first meeting in the 2022 U.S. Open Cup, Northern Colorado facing defending MLS NEXT Pro regular season champions Colorado Rapids 2, which it defeated in the preseason, and Jermaine Jones' Central Valley taking on 1993 U.S. Open Cup champions El Farolito.
