History
Med City FC was founded in 2017 by Frank Spaeth, joining NPSL's North Conference as an expansion team.[7][8]
In late 2019, City was announced as a participant in the 2020 U.S. Open Cup due to its performance in the previous season.[9] This would be the team's first appearance in the tournament. However, on March 13, 2020, U.S. Soccer elected to temporarily suspend the tournament due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[10][11] In January 2024, the club and its academy program were purchased by the ownership group of Rochester FC, another semi-professional soccer program in the city, and subsequently folded into the newly unified USL League Two club and youth academy program.[12]
