Report: Penn FC has ceased operations

There hasn’t been much noise in Harrisburg lately about what was going to happen with Penn FC in 2020. The team had pretty much gone silent after reporting they would go on hiatus for 2019 before dropping down to USL League One for 2020. As a few months of silence quickly turned into fourteen, fans began to fear the worst for the former Harrisburg City Islanders.

Now, with the entire USL in the middle of their annual winter summit down in Orlando, a report has come out from Jeff Rueter of The Athletic that indicates that Penn FC will not return in 2020 and that they have officially ceased operations.
