Now is the time to look forward, keep our heads high and continue pushing toward the many goals we set this season."

Assistant Coaches CJ Brown and Miles Joseph have also left the team by mutual agreement.
The Lions were 21-29-14 in MLS competition under Kreis adn are currently in the sixth and final Eastern Conference playoff spot.
