Houston Dash, Fabrice Gautrat and Twila Kilgore
13 September 2026
Houston Dash have fired head coach Fabrice Gautrat and technical director Twila Kilgore with the club sitting 12th in the 16-team NWSL. Houston are 11 points outside the playoff places after Saturday’s 1-0 home defeat to Utah Royals.
Jaime Frias will serve as interim head coach for the rest of the season. Gautrat arrived before the 2025 campaign, while Kilgore joined the technical-director role in February after previously working with the USWNT, including a spell as interim national coach.
