Josh Wicks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Josh Wicks (born November 1, 1983 in Landstuhl, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany) is a football goalkeeper, from San Bernardino, California playing for the Vancouver Whitecaps.
In 2005, in his first year as a professional, Wicks enjoyed a successful campaign. Wicks began the season as the backup to Mike Franks. However, injuries to the number one keeper allowed him to appear in 13 games, including two games in the playoffs. Wicks allowed only 0.55 goals per game and his overall record was five wins, four losses, and four ties. He also recorded seven shutouts, including both playoff games.
In 2006 Wicks resigned for the Caps and served as backup to Tony Caig. He also helped the Caps win their first USL First Division Championship by beating the Rochester Raging Rhinos 3-0.
Josh's favourite tunes are rap by his neighbour, Dirty Birdy. Josh wants to point out that he does his own 'fro and keeping it real wherever he's at is his main goal in life.
