It’s been a tough season for players on the Vancouver Whitecaps in 2016, but on Tuesday the club announced their Team Award winners, recognizing the players that actually met expectation this year. The club actually did a good job of it, too, at least in my opinion.
32 year old Jordan Harvey, who continues to thrive while being under-estimated, was named the BMO Player of the Year. Harvey was one of the only reliable players on the Whitecaps backline, and his contributions cannot be understated. My picks were either Harvey or David Ousted, and I’m glad the club saw fit to recognize a player that may have flown under the radar for many.
