Nona FC returns to Austin-Tindall Sports Complex on Tuesday, May 25, to host Sporting Jax in a matchup between the top two sides in the USL League Two Southeast Division, following their dominant 5-1 victory over Shark Coast FC.
The team earned their first victory of the 2026 campaign behind a historic performance from forward Larry Noel, who scored the first hat trick in club history. Forward Fabio Bozesan also scored for the second consecutive match as Nona FC tied a club single-game record with five goals.
This marks the tenth all-time meeting between Nona FC and Sporting Jax (formerly Florida Elite Soccer Academy). The Longhorns hold a 3-5-1 record in the series and will attempt to bounce back after dropping both 2025 season meetings against the Jacksonville-based side.
In their most recent matchup at Austin-Tindall on May 25, 2025, Nona FC lost 2-1, with Bernardo Monteiro scoring the lone goal for the Black and Orange.
Sporting Jax enters with an identical 1-0-1 record but sits second in the Southeast Division due to goal difference. They opened their season with a 1-1 draw against Shark Coast FC before defeating Brooke House FC 1-0 Thursday night.
The match serves as Mom’s Night at the venue. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, with streaming available on sportsengineplay.com. The teams meet once more during the 2026 season when Nona FC travels to Jacksonville on June 17.
