Connecticut Wolves - History

History

In 2002, the Wolves were sent down back to D-3, and played there for one year before folding. Former players for the Wolves include Bo Oshoniyi of Southern Connecticut State University, former Wimbledon F.C. player Carlton Fairweather, and former Moroccan international goalkeeper Chuck Martini (also known as Chuck Moussadik). Martini subsequently played for at least 12 football clubs in England, mostly non-league, the most recent being Worthing FC of the Ryman Premier League.

The biggest victory in the team's history occurred on June 26, 2001 when the Wolves defeated Major League Soccer's Tampa Bay Mutiny 3-2 in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup to advance to the third round of the tournament.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “Literary works cannot be taken over like factories, or literary forms of expression like industrial methods. Realist writing, of which history offers many widely varying examples, is likewise conditioned by the question of how, when and for what class it is made use of.”
    —Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)

    “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    “Let us not underrate the value of a fact; it will one day flower in a truth. It is astonishing how few facts of importance are added in a century to the natural history of any animal. The natural history of man himself is still being gradually written.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
