History
In 1918, Scullin Steel of St. Louis entered a team in the St. Louis Soccer League. The team surged to the top of the league, winning the title only to fall to the bottom the next season. It came back in the 1920-1921 season to take the league title for a second time. That year, Scullin Steel also went to the 1921 National Challenge Cup championship, falling 4-2 to Brooklyn Robins Dry Dock. Scullin Steel repeated as league champion for the 1921-1922 season and won the 1922 National Challenge Cup in a 3-2 victory over Todd Shipyards. While it finished second in the league standings the next season, Scullin Steel went to a third consecutive Challenge Cup final. This time, it forfeited to Paterson F.C. after the first game ended in a 2-2 tie. Scullin Steel chose to return to St. Louis when several players left the team in order to join their professional baseball teams.
