One played 78 matches in three seasons with the Kansas City Wizards and then took over the technical director role in 2006, a position he held for 13 years. In 2009, he took on a second role as manager of the club and now sits as the fifth winningest manager in MLS history. Currently, he is the sporting director and manager. The other played 237 matches in blue and has been not only an assistant coach since 2009, but he also is involved in scouting, developing younger players, breaking down film, and other roles.
Peter Vermes and Kerry Zavagnin have put in literally hundreds of thousands of hours bleeding Wizards/Sporting blue.
