Comets Ready for Baltimore

February 8, 2013 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL)
Kansas City Comets News Release


INDEPENDENCE, MO - The Missouri Comets get ready to face the Baltimore Blast this Sunday, February 10th at 3:10pm at the Independence Events Center. The two teams are battling for playoff position as the final month of the MISL regular season gets into full swing.

The Comets are currently in third place in the MISL, a game up on fourth place Chicago Soul and two and a half games up on fifth place Wichita Wings. Baltimore comes into the game solidly in second place, but only a game back of MISL leaders, the Milwaukee Wave.

Behind two new goalkeepers, William Vanzela and Troy Hernandez, the Blast are 17-5 on the season. The Comets are the only team to beat the Blast in Baltimore this season and they hope to be just as successful at home.

January's MISL Defender of the Month, Leo Gibson and his three goals, gave the Comets the boost they needed to come-from-behind and beat the Blast 14-11 two weeks ago. The team will need his offensive firepower, along with team scoring leader Byron Alvarez, and newcomer, Stefan St. Louis to repeat the victory again on Sunday.

Citizens Bank & Trust is sponsoring Sunday's match and is giving away Citizens Banks to the first 1,500 fans to visit the arena. Several of the commemorative banks will have special prizes inside, ranging from tickets to money. Tickets are still available by calling 855.4KC.GOAL (855.452.4625) or by visiting CometsIndoorSoccer.com.
