Look for forward Andre Akpan ’10 on ESPN tonight as his New York Red Bulls of the MLS take on the Seattle Sounders at 9 p.m. The former Crimson captain and NCAA All-American was named Ivy League Player of the Year during his senior year, and ranks as Harvard’s all-time leading scorer with 127 points. He was also a semifinalist for the Hermann Trophy for three straight seasons.
After starting at The Oakridge School during high school, Akpan began his career at Harvard with tremendous success. As a freshman, he was unanimously voted as the Ivy League Rookie of the Year and was named to the First Team All-Ivy League. After graduating in 2010, Akpan was drafted by the Colorado Rapids, and played for the Real Maryland Monarchs club and FC Tampa Bay for brief periods as well. He was traded to the Red Bulls last March and made an assist in his first game a month later. Akpan also contributed an assist in his second playing opportunity last May, and scored four goals for the Red Bulls Reserves earlier this month.
