History

They were formed to represent the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Honduras. They merged with Broncos, forming Broncos de la UNAH, twice in 1982–83 and 2006–07 and meanwhile played in Choluteca those two seasons. They had initially taken over the Club Deportivo Atlético Español franchise.

During their stay at first division as Pumas, they played in Comayagua. They were dissolved in August 2010 due to financial difficulties; the Universidad Pedagógica Nacional (UPN) took their place in the Liga de Ascenso.^[1]
