Porter Gets Nod for Top Coach Honors

The Brigade may have missed an opportunity to win its first home playoff game at the soon-to-be-vacant Kemper Arena, but head honcho Kevin Porter still ended the season as a winner.

Porter received Coach of the Year honors from the artificial turf gurus at Sportexe.

Congratulations to Coach Porter on a well-deserved win. Hey, the season ended on a down note, but the Brigade accomplished a lot under his leadership.

As the folks at KC InfoZine news relayed:

"Porter led Kansas City's second-year Arena Football franchise to a 10-6 regular season record after a 3-13 inaugural year, becoming one of only four teams in the 21-year history of the AFL to make a seven-game turnaround."

Now, let's get to work on getting a championship win, too...
