• USL First Division honours its finest[Club HP]
*バンクーバーはUSL1の年間ベストイレブンに平野選手他4名が選ばれ表彰されたと伝えています。平野選手はセコンドチームのベストイレブンだったようです。
United Soccer Leagues honoured the First Division's finest when it held its Championship Media & Awards Banquet at the Hilton Vancouver Metrotown in Burnaby, BC, on Saturday afternoon.
--
The first accolades to be presented were the USL-1 All-League First and Second Team honours. Four Whitecaps in Martin Nash, Eduardo Sebrango, Wesley Charles, and Takashi Hirano received their awards, as did Puerto Rico's Bill Gaudette, Cristian Arrieta, and Jonny Steele. Gaudette received further acknowledgement after being named USL-1 Goalkeeper of the Year late last month.
• Puerto Rico Islanders at Vancouver Whitecaps
[Club HP] *バンクーバーはリーグプレーオフ、アウェーのプエルトリコ戦に2-1で勝利し、リーグチャンピョンに輝きました。準決勝まではホーム&アウェーの戦いでしたが、決勝は1発勝負だったようです。平野選手はベンチ入りしましたが出番は有りませんでした。プレーしたくてウズウズしていたのではないでしょうか。とにかく移籍1年目でのリーグ優勝おめでとうございます!
