KANSAS CITY (Feb. 7, 2017) - Kansas City Comets midfielder Vahid Assadpour was named to the Major Arena Soccer League's Team of the Week this afternoon. The team captain and assistant coach earned his spot on this week's team after scoring two goals and two assists in the Comets 10-4 victory over the St. Louis Ambush.

John Sosa was also named Honorable Mention on this week's roster. He had a goal, two assists and two blocks in the win against St. Louis.

The Comets put their streak on the line this weekend as they return home to the Silverstein Eye Centers Arena to face the Dallas Sidekicks on February 11th at 7:05p.m. CT. The Comets will be celebrating their annual Pink Night with special jerseys that will be auctioned off to benefit The Ali Kemp Foundation.
