. ''Los lobos'' played a total of 7 seasons in the ANAPROF before disappearing in 2002. In most of the seasons the team would be placed in the bottom half of the general position (mostly the bottom positions close to relegation). Its best run was in 1997–98 where they qualified for the quarterfinals as 6th in the league, but they lost on aggregate against Árabe Unido. On 2001 the team finished dead last with a poor record (in the Apertura championship they did not win a single game) and were relegated to Primera A. Unfortunately ''los lobos'' suffered a severe economical problem and were forced to abandon the Primera A 2002 championship before it started. Their place in that tournament was bought by Denis Arce and his newly founded team Atlético Chiriquí who recruited most of the players from the Chiriquí F.C. squad for that championship.
