Today's riddle: What do you call a belt made of watches? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Greenville Triumph SC Cruises to 4–0 Victory Over FC Naples (greenvilletriumph.com) — Greenville Triumph SC thrilled local fans Saturday night with a 4–0 home win over FC Naples at GE Vernova Park in Mauldin, strengthening their late-season push. Devin Boyce opened the scoring before Muba Nour's brace and Azaad Liadi's late goal sealed the dominant performance. The club now looks to carry that momentum into a Sept. 5 road trip to Chattanooga FC.
2. Greenville, SC, Tpm Sales Executive, Lance Wright Passes Away Leaving His Family and Friends (theunionstar.com) — Greenville friends and colleagues are mourning Lance Wright, who died this week after a brief battle with cancer and was remembered as a loyal friend and "big brother" figure to many. Tributes describe Sunday gatherings on a back porch, his easy laughter, and the steady support he offered throughout people's lives. He leaves behind family and a wide circle of friends who will carry his memory forward.
3. Spoonbill Gallery to host 'Grounded' exhibition (greenvillejournal.com) — Greenville art lovers can catch a new exhibition, "Grounded," opening Sept. 4 at Spoonbill Gallery on Pendleton Street and running through Sept. 26. The show highlights landscapes by Greenville artist Michelle Berg Radford, who hopes her nature-focused work encourages viewers to slow down and reconnect with the outdoors. A First Friday reception is planned Sept. 4 from 6–9 p.m.
4. The Italian pastry that's caused a frenzy (krdo.com) — Greenville earns a proud No. 3 spot on CNN's 2026 list of America's Best Towns to Visit, putting the city alongside destinations like New Haven and Roanoke. While the story ranges from Italian pastries to Korean divers, it underscores Greenville's growing national reputation as a standout place for culture, food, and travel-worthy charm.
5. The Housing Market Is Moving in Favor of Buyers, but 3 Southern Cities Are Bucking the Trend (lmtonline.com) — Greenville's housing market has shifted from a buyer's market into more balanced territory, even as many U.S. metros grow more buyer-friendly. Local agents say steady demand, intentional new construction, and continued interest from out-of-market buyers are keeping conditions stable. Buyers still find leverage in typical suburbs, but inventory remains tight near downtown and in popular school districts.
