History
The Barracudas competed in the league's Southeast Division during its lone season of existence.[1] The club played an 18-game schedule, finishing with a 5–13 record (1–1 in shootouts), placing fourth in the division behind the Miami Breakers (17–1–0), Orlando Nighthawks (12–6–0), and Southwest Florida Manatees (8–10–0–1).[2][3] They scored 21 goals and allowed 57, failing to qualify for the playoffs or entry into the U.S. Open Cup.[4] The team folded after the season amid a broader contraction in lower-division soccer.
