Reports: Wilmington Hammerheads to sit out 2017 season

This is never news that you want to hear. According to Scratching the Pitch’s Chad Hollingsworth, New York City’s USL affiliate the Wilmington Hammerheads are going to go on hiatus next season:

...a somewhat unexpected bit of news to come out of the USL midseason meetings is that Wilmington does not plan to compete in 2017. This report comes from independent sources within the league.

Jason Arnold, Wilmington Hammerheads FC General Manager, was contacted but could not comment on the 2017 season.

If you weren’t aware, lower-division soccer in the United States is in flux, and always has been.
