Team president Phil Rawlins said Heath was an integral part of the clubs transition to Major League Soccer from the United Soccer League, but he said the team had reached a tipping point that required difficult decisions.His hard work and dedication will always be appreciated by those he has coached and by those who have followed our rapid development into a major league club, Rawlins said.Bobby Murphy has been named interim head coach for Orlando City SC (4-4-8), which is tied for sixth in the Eastern Conference with 20 points.
