The Rhinos open up Sahlen's Stadium for the 2015 USL season. This is the team's 20th season and with the momentum picked up over a five-game undefeated road stand, the Rhinos will want to came out of the gates at full speed against NYRB II.
These two teams met about a month ago in the first game of the season. That match ended scoreless despite a handful of chances for the visiting Rhinos. While Rochester has shown its defense to be among the best in the league, they have improved on the attacking side of their game since the season began.
