The Houston Dash fire coach Fabrice Gautrat and technical director Twila Kilgore effective immediately. The club also appoints Jaime Frias as interim head coach for the remainder of the season, according to reports.
The move comes with Houston near the lower end of the National Women’s Soccer League standings and with only six regular-season matches remaining. One outlet reports the Dash hold a 7-12-5 record and sit 12th out of 16 teams. The Athletic adds that the departures occur amid broader front-office staff changes across the league, framing the decision as part of wider organizational turnover.
Across the coverage, outlets align on who is dismissed, that the change is immediate, and that Frias takes over on an interim basis. Differences are limited to additional context: some focus on the team’s performance and timing late in the season, while others emphasize that multiple staffing adjustments are occurring around the NWSL.
