The primary focus for Kimes moving forward should be strengthening their defensive organization and discipline. The high number of goals conceded indicates a need for tactical adjustments, better communication, and possibly new defensive personnel. Additionally, increasing goal-scoring opportunities and efficiency in front of goal will be crucial to turn draws and narrow losses into wins.
