Spicer Named in MLS Team of the Week

Trinidad and Tobago’s star footballer, Tyrese Spicer, has earned a spot on the Major League Soccer (MLS) Team of the Week for Match Day 6, marking a significant milestone in his career. Spicer has made a remarkable impact in his inaugural season in the MLS, scoring his first goal for Toronto FC against Atlanta United in their recent match. His impressive performance has led to his recognition on the MLS Team of the Week, an honour given to players who have distinguished themselves on the pitch during the respective match day.

Tyrese Spicer is not new to breaking grounds in his football career. He became the top pick in the Major League Soccer SuperDraft conducted in December 2023. His selection came by no surprise considering his track record and outstanding performances that had earned him critical acclaim in the soccer sphere. Spicer’s winning goal for Toronto FC against Atlanta United underlines his potential and the fact that he is indeed a rising star in MLS.

Before making his mark in the MLS, Spicer demonstrated his remarkable talent at Lipscomb University. He boasts a record of scoring 29 goals in 57 career games, which by any standard is a stunning achievement. His stint at Lipscomb University had been nothing short of extraordinary, setting him up for a successful career in Major League Soccer. It is clear that Spicer is a player to watch, expected to make significant contributions to his club, Toronto FC, and Major League Soccer in general.

In a related development, Wayne Frederick II, son of the former president of Howard University, has also been making strides in his soccer career. He recently made his first assist for Colorado Rapids 2. Frederick, who was the second overall draft pick in December, played a crucial role in setting up Colorado’s opening goal providing a through ball to Marlon Vargas.

Despite their strong start, Colorado Rapids 2, unfortunately, suffered a loss, with a scoreline of 4-2 in their recent match. Wayne has also showcased his skills at Duke University in the college level, where he was a midfielder. Both Tyrese Spicer and Wayne Frederick II are making their mark on Major League Soccer, showing promising potential in their still rising careers. They could be the players to watch in the future as they carve out their paths in American Soccer.
