It is the second scoring championship for Twellman, who becomes just
the second player to win the award more than once, having also taken
the prize in his first MLS season in 2002, when it also included
assists.
"It means a lot," Twellman said of capturing the Golden Boot. "The
last year and a half has been pretty difficult, including this year.
At the end of the day, if we don't win the championship it (doesn't
mean much) to me."
The Revolution have put themselves in a great position to claim
their first MLS Cup, thanks in no small part to Twellman's
consistent contributions. New England finished atop the Eastern
Conference with 59 points from a 17-7-8 record. On several occasions
this season Twellman struck late to win or tie games for the
Revolution, including in the season opener.
The Revs, the Eastern Conference's best team, will meet the Chicago
Fire in the Conference Final this weekend to see who goes on to the
MLS Cup on Nov. 13th.
