January 29, 2015 - Major Arena Soccer League (MASL) Missouri Comets INDEPENDENCE, Mo. (January 29, 2015) - Less than a week from earning a shorthanded overtime victory at the Arena Monterrey, which meant the Major Arena Soccer League Central Division championship, the undefeated Missouri Comets (15-0) will face the Chicago Mustangs (9-5) for the third time this season.

The Comets will be wearing special edition gold jerseys to support the fight against pediatric cancer, which will be auctioned at the end of the match. All proceeds will benefit Dalton Everette Burner Foundation and Camp Quality USA. In addition, the halftime break will feature Calvin and other mascots playing a scrimmage game.

Both teams will face off for the third time this season after the Comets earned a 12-6 victory at the Sears Centre on week two before crushing the Mustangs 15-6 at home last December 6.

Forward Leo Gibson will look to remain at the top of the league standings where he currently stands first with a total of 59 points recording 31 goals and 28 assists.

Last weekend, the Mustangs were awarded a 3-0 forfeit win by the MASL after the Tulsa Revolution cancelled their match due to complications moving the turf from the Cox Business Center to their new venue.

The Mustangs are led by Efrain Wilo Martinez who has played all thirteen games recording a total of 24 points with 11 goals and 13 assists. Miguel Vaca follows closely with 20 points (12 goals and eight assists).

Head coach Vlatko Andonovski's team has five more regular season games (three at home and two on the road) before the beginning of the playoffs.

Next up, the Comets will hit the road when they visit the St. Louis Ambush on Friday, February 6 and the Wichita B-52s on Sunday, February 8.
