HAT TRICK EARNS DE ROSARIO PLAYER OF THE WEEK HONOURS


Dwayne De Rosario's historic hat trick has earned the Canadian midfielder player of the week honours in Major League Soccer.

The D.C. United midfielder recorded the fastest hat trick in MLS history against Real Salt Lake on Saturday, scoring in the 22nd, 27th and 31st minutes.

The 33-year-old Toronto native has an MLS-best 13 goals on the season.

The weekly award was De Rosario's third this season.

He's also the first player in D.C. United history to record two regular-season hat tricks in the same season. His first was on Aug. 6 versus his former club Toronto FC.

De Rosario has 10 and six assists in 13 MLS matches since he was acquired by D.C. United.
