Forward of the Year

Will Bruin (68%)

Truth is the Dynamo really didn't have much competition here. The Dancing Bear built upon his rookie season success with an outstanding sophomore year. Bruin was a dominating force in MLS from the start of the year and finished on a strong note as well. Even when Dominic Kinnear switched formations after acquiring Boniek Garcia, Bruin was still a factor in most games, even though he struggled to find the back of the net.

In 32 regular season games, the Dancing Bear finished with 12 goals and 4 assists. In the MLS Cup Playoffs, he added 4 goals and an assist. Not bad for a second year forward. The future is definitely bright.

While Calen Carr put in a number of strong experiences and Brian Ching was good off the bench, this award was a no-brainer for Bruin.
