The 2023 Memphis 901 FC season was the fifth season for Memphis 901 FC in the USL Championship, the second-tier professional soccer league in the United States and Canada.
New head coach Stephen Glass had a rough start to the season with back to back 1-3 home losses. Memphis 901 FC found their rhythm though and went undefeated in the months of April, May, and June with a record of 8-0-4 (W-L-D). They hit a slump in July with 2 draws and 4 losses while being scored against 18 times. They finished the season with 52 from a record of 14–10–10.[1] Their 52pts landed them in 4th place in the east and a home playoff match.[2]
The playoffs began on October 21 as Memphis hosted Louisville City. 901 FC went up quick with a 32 second goal by Bruno Lapa - 2nd fastest in League history at the time. Louisville found the equilizer later that half as the game slowed down and went into overtime and then to penalties. Louisville went first, with both teams exchanging goals until the fifth Memphis player was unable to hit the back of the net. Memphis 901 FC ultimately came up short and their 2023 season came to a close. [3]
