  2017

The 2018 season was Penn FC's 15th season of competitive soccer, its second in the second division of American soccer, and its eighth and final season in the United Soccer League, now known as the USL Championship. [1] This was the first season the club operated under the "Penn FC" name, having re-branded from the Harrisburg City Islanders in November 2017. [2]

Contents

In October 2018, the club announced that it would not play in the USL's top flight beyond that season. Penn FC will suspend professional operations for the 2019 season and resume play in 2020 as a member of USL League One, a third-level league to be launched in 2019 by the USL parent organization.
