They fought their way back up but the Argentine league structure was undergoing some re-structuring and that led to them being pushed straight into the Primera C Division for 2 seasons, before they could climb out of it.
For the decade starting 1970, the team oscillated between the First, Second and Third divisions, getting a second and third place finish at the Primera division. They dropped down only to climb back to the Primera division in 1993-94. But a terrible season saw the fall straight back. The team created history by being the first team from Cordoba to qualify for the 2001 Copa Mercosur and the 2002 Copa Libertadores.
