Forward Madison FC’s first season came to an end Saturday night at Globe Life Park in Arlington, Texas.

After sliding into the USL League One playoffs on the season’s final day, the Flamingos could not overcome two second-half goals from North Texas SC.

Forward Madison found itself in last place in the league after 10 games, but allowed only five goals in the regular season’s last 12 matches.

To show appreciation for their team, the club’s supporter group, Forward Union, cleaned up the Tenney-Lapham neighborhood Saturday morning before hosting a watch party.

Forward Union says its members logged more than 100 hours of volunteer time this season.
