Lakewood spent it's inaugural season in the upstart Washington State League where it was booted from the league in early June after on-field incidents during a clash with the Eagles.
 
In an odd and questionable move, the Lions were granted membership into the Western Washington Football Alliance for the 2018 season after having gone 0-2 versus WWFA competition the year before to teams with a combined record of 10-12 on the season.
 
Opening the 2018 season against the Raptors, the Lions bombed their former league members 50-0, however they were subsequently bombed themselves in their next two outings by league powers Portland and Wenatchee.  A loss for the second-straight year to the formerly 8-man Kitsap Storm ended the Lions run as the team folded up shop forfeiting the remainder of the season.  Two seasons, two leagues, two schedules forfeited during the second-half of the season.
 
In 2021 after coaching with the Tacoma Sabers, it was announced former coach William Conrad and former owner Zach Fisher had formed the Grit City Knights with intentions of playing in the Gridiron Developmental Football League (GDFL) for 2022.
