Tampa gets pro team; Houston Dynamo expand into Texas Rio Grande Valley
Seven years after MLS folded the Tampa Bay Mutiny, a move that caused many to predict the sudden
demise of the league, professional soccer is returning thanks to a new USL First Division squad.
The new team will begin play next season.
This announcement comes one day after 'Hillsborough County commissioners gave limited approval to
building a $15 million soccer complex and stadium at a site to be determined' but a spokesperson
for the team says the two are unrelated as the owners want to build their own stadium in northwest
Tampa.
