VANCOUVER, BC - Vancouver native Ben McKendry was named the USL Player of the Week, the league announced on Tuesday.
The first team player on loan to Whitecaps FC 2 scored his first goal of the season in grand fashion last Wednesday, finding the net from 35 yards out to help the young 'Caps to a 2-1 comeback win at Swope Park Rangers.
He played 87 minutes in the road win, increasing his playing time in every match this year after missing the final seven games of last season due to injury.
