The Foxes joined the PDL in 2009,[1] and played their first ever game on May 9, 2009, against Kansas City Brass. The Foxes won the game 3–2, with the first goal in franchise history being scored by Chris Salvaggione.[2]
In 2011, the team qualified for its first Lamar Hunt US Open Cup by winning the first 4 games of the regular season.
