Sporting KC: Players Tell All

Get to know a sliver of this season’s Sporting KC soccer team, including the leading goal-scorer from Sierra Leone, a hometown boy from Rockhurst High & the Danish goalie fans call the white puma.

Our first guest will be Kei Kamara. He was Sporting’s leading goal-scorer in last year’s turnaround season, with nine goals, and is a native of Kenema, Sierra Leone.

Then, in the next third of the program, get to know hometown boy Seth Sinovic. He's from Leawood, and exemplifies the classic try, try, and try again sports story that many a fan loves to hear. 

Up third on our rooster is the white puma himself: team captain and goalie, Jimmy Nielsen.
