Erick Scott

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Erick Scott Bernard (born May 21, 1981 in San José, Costa Rica) is a Costa Rican soccer player, who currently plays for LD Alajuelense.

Scott joined the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer on loan in March 2004, after several exceptional years with Alajuelense, with whom he had played since May 2001. Scott scored 13 goals in the 2001-2 season, and another 20 in the 2002-3 season, propelling LDA to two straight league titles. Scott also scored several goals against MLS and Mexican league sides in the CONCACAF Champions Cup.

After joining the Crew, however, Scott has seen minimal playing time, and seems unlikely to return for 2005. He was picked up by Real Salt Lake with the last pick of the 2004 MLS Expansion Draft, but was not brought into the squad, staying in Costa Rica.

Scott has also been a promising player for the Costa Rica national team since his debut in 2002, appearing in the 2001 World Youth Championship, the 2003 Gold Cup and the 2004 Olympics.
