Earthquakes forward out for the season with injured knee
Friday April 04, 2003
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) -- San Jose Earthquakes forward Dwayne De
Rosario suffered a torn ligament in his right knee and is expected
to be out for the season, the team announced Friday.
DeRosario, also a member of the Canadian National Team, suffered
the injury while playing in a scrimmage against San Jose State
University last week.
He had also been recovering from a broken bone in his right
foot.
The Earthquakes' head coach Frank Yallop called the news
``devastating.'' The team's physician will perform surgery on De
Rosario's knee on Monday.
De Rosario has played two seasons with the Earthquakes, scoring
nine goals and registering two assists.
