Duluth FC opened its home schedule in the National Premier Soccer League's North Division on a winning note, taking down the Sioux Falls Thunder 3-1 on Saturday night at Public Schools Stadium.

The visitors, playing their season opener, scored just three minutes in off a free kick, but the BlueGreens weren't down for long, as Stefan Roeb scored his first goal of the season, chipping the Sioux Falls goalkeeper from outside the penalty area.

After going to the half even, Duluth FC took the lead on a header from substitute Dylan Zavatini in the 66th minute before Kostya Domaratskyy, a returner from the 2022 campaign, finished off the victory with an impressive individual effort in the 75th.

Duluth FC (2-0-0) plays a midweek game on the road at La Crosse Aris on Wednesday.

Often, the "staff" byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
