THUNDER BAY – The Thunder Bay Chill have released their USL League Two scheduled for 2019.

The Chill’s season begins on May 24 when they visit Kaw Valley. Two days later they’ll take on the St. Louis Lions in St. Louis.

After a pair of exhibition games against the Winnipeg Lions on June 1 and June 2, the team will open its regular-season home schedule on June 7 against WSA Winnipeg, the first of two games the team will play that weekend.

The two teams will meet on back-to-back weekends, the Winnipeg squad playing host to the Chill the following weekend.
