Toronto FC forward O'Brian White continues to make good progress as he recovers from an ACL injury. White joined in warm-up with the team on Monday for the first time. The 23 year old has stepped up his training and has begun working with the ball.
"He is making excellent progress," said Manager, Director of Soccer Mo Johnston. "We are very pleased with his recovery and credit goes to the members of the medical staff who have been working very hard with him. He has been doing a lot of one-on-one work with Shawn Jeffers as well as working with Paul Winsper and Carmelo Lobue."
White was picked 4th overall in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft in St.Louis and arrived in Toronto with a formidable reputation. He won the highest individual honour in U.S. collegiate soccer in January 2008 when he received the M.A.C. Hermann Trophy as the National Collegiate Athletic Association's most valuable player. White scored six goals in 14 games in 2008 before suffering an ACL injury in October that ruled him out for the rest of the year.
