History
editUSL League One
editOn October 23, 2023, the United Soccer League announced that North Sixth Group had been granted a USL League One expansion team in Sherman, Texas, to start play in the 2025 season followed by a women's pre-professional team in USL W League in 2026.[1][2] The team had been in the making for at least four months beforehand, with co-owners Jacob West and Ben Watson being soccer veterans with local ties to the city of Sherman.[3] The club will play in Historic Bearcat Stadium until a permanent stadium is built.
The club's name and logo were unveiled on December 14, 2023.[4]
On May 9, 2024, the club announced Adrian Forbes as the team's inaugural sporting director.[5] Forbes was announced to be the team's first-ever head coach on October 17, 2024, combining that position with his role as sporting director.[6][7]
Texoma finished their inaugural season in League One in 12th, missing the playoffs. After the regular season concluded, the USL announced that Texoma was self-relegating to USL League Two for at least the 2026 season.[8]
USL League Two
editAdrian Forbes departed the club following its self-relegation. Ben Clarvis will be Texoma's head coach for the 2026 season, assisted by Tristan England and Solomon Asante, the latter of whom played for Texoma in 2025.[9] Texoma will begin its second season, and first in League Two, away to Fort Worth Vaqueros FC.[10]
Colors and badge
editThe club's nickname, colors and crest were unveiled on December 14, 2023. The crest features two stylized birds: a Northern mockingbird and a Scissor-tailed flycatcher (the state birds of Texas and Oklahoma, respectively), standing over a soccer ball. The club colors are identified as magnolia and red; magnolia being a reference to the nickname of nearby Durant, Oklahoma, which nis known as the "city of magnolias", and red represents the Red River that separates the two states.[11]
