Sporting Kansas City kicked-off preseason today with practice, the beep test and a new winner!
Jordi Quintilla became the newly crowned beep test champion following in the footsteps of former back-to-back season winner, Christian Duke. Duke recorded 17-6 last season, with Seth Sinovic and Mikey Lopez as strong competitors.
The beep test is an aerobic fitness exercise, involving continuously running between two cones set 20 meters apart, to test one’s cardiovascular endurance, as the test progresses.
Quintilla, joined Sporting Kansas City last season and is most notable for scoring the winning penalty kick, that earned Sporting KC their third Lamar Hunt U.
