History

The team launched alongside the rebranded men's Rochester Lancers NPSL side in April 2017. [1]

Team owner Salvatore 'SoccerSam' Fantauzzo hired coaches Sal Galvano and Loren Inglese to form the team within 30 days. Playing home games at the Aquinas Institute the team was winless in 2017. For 2018 the team played at Marina Auto Stadium in downtown Rochester, NY. Sal Galvano took over the head coaching duties with his player/assistant coach, Brooke Barbuto. The team finished the season in 3rd place with a record of 5-3-2; Barbuto was named the MVP of the 2018 UWS Season. In 2019 the team returned to Aquinas and fell to 3-5-2. The 2020 UWS season was cancelled due to the pandemic; returning to play in 2021 the team posted a record of 0–12.[ inconsistent ]
