Finals berth at stake as Comets visit Tropics

One win away from the team’s first-ever Ron Newman Cup Finals appearance, the Kansas City Comets still have their work cut out for them against the Florida Tropics.

Winning just one of their last seven road games, getting a win in Florida against the No. 2 seeded Tropics will not be easy.

The Comets got to the playoffs as the No. 3 overall seed after winning the Central Division and beating the Dallas Sidekicks 2-1 in the best-of-three quarterfinal series.

Kansas City started off looking like the early Ron Newman Cup frontrunner, but then the Comets fell into a rough spell.
