History
[edit]Deportivo Cihuatlán I
[edit]In 1998 the first representative team of the city was founded, which was called Deportivo Cihuatlán and competed in the Tercera División. In 1999 it won the league championship and its promotion to Segunda División after defeat Potros UAEM in the final.[1] In the Torneo Invierno 2001 of the Segunda División, the team achieved its second championship by defeating Tapatío in the final, in this way the club achieved its promotion to the Primera División A.[1][2]
In Invierno 2002 the team debuted in the Primera División 'A' getting 26 points in 19 games, which allowed him to play the repechage stage, however, in this series the club was eliminated by Acapulco. For the Verano 2003, Cihuatlán finished in second place in the regular stage, thus qualifying for the first play-offs in its history. In the quarterfinals the club eliminated Celaya F.C. by an aggregate score of 8–4,[3][4] however, in the semifinals the team was defeated by Tapatío with an aggregate of 6–10, signing the best season in history.[5] At the end of the tournament, the team was sold by its owners because Cihuatlán did not meet the conditions to keep a team in that division, so the franchise was relocated to Culiacán and was renamed Dorados de Sinaloa.[6]
