FARGO - A local semi-pro soccer team called it quits after two seasons on Tuesday, Aug. 23, according to its Twitter account. FC Fargo owner Tim Singleton was quoted on the team Twitter page as saying "With great sadness, I am announcing that effective today FC Fargo will cease day-to-day operations due to financial reasons."

According to Singleton, FC Fargo drew between 250-300 fans per game in its inaugural season in 2015. Singleton told The Forum in March 2105 that he took a second job at Mystic Lake Casino to help fund FC Fargo, stating he saved $40,000 for that first season. The team entered the American Premier League this season and ended in first place of the five-team upper midwest division with a record of five wins, one loss and two draws.
