For the first time since July of 2019, the Ocean City Nor'easters were back on the field, and back to their winning ways. The Nor'easters kicked off the club's 24th season with a 3-0 road win over Real Central New Jersey at Mercer County Community College.

Bakary Bagayoko (Cumberland Univ. / The Bronx, NY) scored a pair of goals, including a wonder goal in the 49th minute. Kyle Galloway (Rutgers / Manahawkin, NJ) came off the bench in the second half and added a third goal to put the game away. Goalkeeper Jahmali Waite (UConn / Philadelphia, PA) made three saves to earn the clean sheet in his Ocean City debut.
