1997
Accomplishments:
MTSA Cup Finalists
In the first year of the Assyrian Athletic Club, the team carried the name Nineveh Star. Under the new coach, Youkhanna Shlaimon, the team experienced a change in style of play which resulted in some disappointments during the season and the AANC in Detroit.
The team did manage though, to reach the final of the MTSA Cup, which was beyond expectations. They lost in the final at Centennial Stadium to one of the best teams in Toronto, the Canadian Serbs.
