Comets Looking for Championship Win

March 16, 2014 - Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) Missouri Comets INDEPENDENCE, Missouri (March 16, 2014) - The Missouri Comets will play the final game of the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) 2013-2014 Championship Series this afternoon at Baltimore Arena in Baltimore, MD. Missouri leads the series 1-0 after an exciting 15-8 win on Friday in the Independence Events Center. A win in Game Two would clinch the first MISL Championship team for the Comets. Should the Baltimore Blast win Game Two, an immediate 15 minute Mini-Game would be played to decide the winner.

Before Friday, no team had scored more than 12 points this season on a stingy Baltimore defense. The Comets broke through that barrier and they did it by only scoring three-point goals. Vahid Assadpour had a hat trick while Stefan St. Louis added another long-distance score and Brian Harris walked in a score from the arc. Baltimore netted two goals early on in the game but the Comets held them at four until late in to the fourth quarter.

After resting in Game One, Baltimore's regular starting goalkeeper, William Vanzela, will return for today for the Blast. The MISL's Goalkeeper of the Year finished the regular season with a 5.57 Points Against Average.

The matchup of Vanzela and Comets' Danny Waltman is one of the best the MISL has to offer. Missouri's goalkeeper has a playoff leading .750 save percentage. He finished the regular season with more wins than any other player (14) and currently leads the playoffs with three wins.

Assadpour's hat trick set a MISL Playoffs record on Friday night. He and the rest of the Comets offense will once again have to be on top of their game if they hope to bring home the MISL Championship Trophy.

Fans are encouraged to join the Comets Nation Fan Club at Coach's Bar & Grille on 103rd and Wornall on Sunday for the Official Watch Party. The game will also be shown LIVE on the Comets website at CometsIndoorSoccer.com/Live-Feed.
