We thank them both for all of the memories made, their hard work and dedication as key members of our first two years as a team, and we wish them all the best in their futures! pic.twitter.com/n8PpWxjHbM
NamedHwi, much like Hayes, began his tenure with the Fusion prior to the inaugural season as an assistant coach. After a year in which the Fusion finished as the season's runner-ups, NamedHwi was promoted to the position of co-head coach alongside Hayes.
Their 2019 campaign was not nearly the success their 2018 season was. Although they finished the regular season with a winning record at 15-13, the Fusion only qualified for the play-in tournament. They failed to win their opening game of the play-ins and were eliminated from the postseason as a result.
The Fusion currently have no head coach. Assistant coach ChrisTFer is the only coach remaining on their staff.
