PORTLAND, Ore.
– Midfielder Andrew Gregor and forward Byron Alvarez were named to the A-League Team of the Week in recognition of their offensive output last week, it was announced Tuesday.

Alvarez, 25, who was named A-League Player of the Week for Week Nine, earned his second nod to the Team of the Week this season by tallying three goals in wins over Minnesota and Edmonton. He scored once against Minnesota and leveled two strikes at Edmonton on Saturday afternoon.
