Professional Experience and Honors:
2002: Due to an early season injury to defender Chris Brown, Kevin played the majority of the 2002 season as a central defender. He started 34 of 36 games and was second on the team in minutes with 3,337. His lone goal came in a 4-1 win over the Pittsburgh Riverhounds on May 11th. He was also named to the A-League Team of the Week on June 4th for his solid play in a shutout win against the Atlanta Silverbacks on June 1st.
2001: Kevin again was the iron man of the midfield leading the Kickers in minutes played with 2823 after starting 31 of 32 games played (missing only one game throughout the 2001 season). He contributed offensively with two goals and two assists (one of them a game winner against 2nd Round US Open Cup foe, the Reading Rage) as well as garnering Team of the Week honors for his heroics in a mid-season match-up against Central Conference rival Atlanta Silverbacks, a game in which he received three stitches from a blow to the head.
2000: After the 2000 season, Kevin Knight was selected as the Supporter’s MVP by the fans for his solid play and community involvement. The versatile midfielder-defender started 31 of 32 games for the Kickers, which set a franchise record, and tallied 2,770 minutes (second most on the team behind McGinty). In that time Kevin was also an offensive spark finishing third on the team in scoring with 3 goals and 5 assists for 11 points.
1999: Prior to his stint with the Kickers, Kevin was picked 16th overall (second round) in the 1999 Major League Soccer (MLS) College Draft by the NY/NJ Metrostars. As a Metrostar defender, he started in 8 of 11 games played, for a total of 732 minutes. Knight was deemed a versatile and hard-working player.
