Lazers Play Host to Kansas City Tonight

The Lazers, whose play has improved noticeably since rookie goalkeeper Kris Peat was activated, will play host to the Kansas City Comets tonight at 7:30 at the Forum.

Peat, the Lazers’ first-round draft choice from North Carolina State, is 3-0 since playing in his first Major Indoor Soccer League game earlier this month. The Lazers, after a series of losing streaks, have won 3 of their last 4 games.

Since earning his first victory after relieving starter Jim Gorsek in the fourth quarter of a 6-5 victory over the San Diego Sockers Jan. 5, Peat won his first 2 starts against the first-place Baltimore Blast and the Wichita Wings.

The Lazers (9-11) have split 2 games this season against the last-place Comets (6-13).
