The club's origins date back to 1983, when the UABJO bought the franchise of Pumas ENEP, the Pumas UNAM reserve team and it was renamed as Chapulineros de Oaxaca, compiting in the 1985–86 Mexican Segunda División season.
In 1994, the club remains in the Segunda División after the creation of the Primera División 'A' as the new second level of Mexican football, later it became a team affiliated with Toros Neza, to later be managed by the Universidad Regional del Sureste.
For the 2001–02 Primera División A season, the Grupo Pegaso returns to the Chapulineros to professional football after acquiring the franchise of Lobos UAP and relocating it to Oaxaca. The club had bad results and had to play a relegation play-out to remain in the league, which they managed to win and could continue to play in the same division. For the 2003–04 season the club was dissolved again when the franchise was moved to Tlaxcala, and later renamed as Guerreros de Tlaxcala.
