The new soccer team in the Triangle was given a name on Wednesday. It is the Carolina RailHawks. So, what does the name mean? The reason behind the logic can be found on the website of the local supporters club. The team is going to be in the US Soccer League Division 1
This is the league below MLS, so, in English speak it will be Divsion 2, or in todays jargon, The Championship.
We have a new team to support. Are we going to have the passion for it as we do the Earthquakes? Or I Hartlepool? I doubt it, but, it is going ot be fun.
The new franchise name was announced at a match on Wednesday evening between the USL Division 1 All Stars and Sheffield Wednesday. Some coincidences in the event. The worldest newest professional team announced at a game where one of the Worlds Oldest is playing. Sheffield is actually the home to the worlds oldest team, Sheffield FC now an amateur team. Also one the reason RailHawks was chosen was because Cary was based built as rail hub using steel from England. As Sheffield was the centre of Britsh Steelbuilding there is a very good chance the rails were built with Steel from Sheffield.
