The Kansas City Comets ended their regular season with an emphatic 13-4 win over the Dallas Sidekicks on Sunday at Cable Dahmer Arena.
Kansas City had four players with braces, including Ray Lee, Leo Gibson, Dominic Francis, and Robert Kelly. Felipe De Sousa led the way for Dallas, scoring a hat trick for the third time against the Comets this season.
The Comets held out goalkeeper Nicolau Neto and forwards Ramone Palmer and Kevin Ellis. Ignacio Flores returned after missing both games last weekend. Neto was replaced by Lou Misner in the first half and Mark Saxby in the second half.

The Kansas City Comets surrendered a three-goal lead to suffer their third straight loss on Saturday against the St. Louis Ambush.
The Comets entered the matchup already without player/coach Leo Gibson due to suspension, but Ray Lee, Felipe Abreu, Kevin Ellis, Ignacio Flores, and Kyle McGlagan also missed presumably through injury or illness. This forced KC to sign Jose “Ze” Ramos, who’s only previous experience was in KC’s Central Cup win over the Ambush in December.
KC started well with first quarter goals from Hector Solorio and Rian Marques. The Ambush answered with three consecutive goals before Marques scored his second of the night and Adam James added his third of the season to give KC the 4-3 lead at halftime.
