Sacramento Geckos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sacramento Geckos was a soccer club that competed in the United Soccer Leagues from 1997 to 1999. The club originally started as the Albuquerque Geckos in Albuquerque, New Mexico, before moving to Sacramento, California for the 1999 season.
After winning the D-3 Pro League title in 1997, the Geckos moved up to the A-League in 1998, and suffered through a miserable season where they only won five games. The move to California didn't help as the Geckos failed to win a game or survive the season.
