The Laredo Lobos were an arena football team from Laredo, Texas that played in the af2 and Intense Football League . The Lobos played their home games in the Laredo Entertainment Center .
history
The Lobos (Spanish: Wolves) were founded in 2005 and started in the Intense Football League (IFL) in 2006 . After only 2 wins from 14 games and the last place in the IFL, the move to af2, which is regarded as stronger, followed in 2007 with a new management. The new general manager and co-owner of the franchise Roque Vela Jr. then criticized not only the team's lack of identification with the region around Laredo, but also that of the former owners, who were also not from Laredo.
The af2 season 2007 was just as unsuccessful as the previous one. Only one win after 15 defeats and the last place of the Southwest Division was the sobering result. In addition, with an average of 1,439 spectators, the Lobos were by far the last place in the league. On the last day of play, only 375 spectators came to the home game against the Bossier-Shreveport Battle Wings .
At the end of 2007, the Lobos were dissolved after only three wins from thirty games in two years.
