Former Mountaineer Soccer Star Franck Tayou Awarded 4th Straight MASL MVP

Franck Tayou was awarded the Major Arena Soccer League MVP for the 2019-20 season.

Since leaving Morgantown in 2011, Tayou has played for roughly 16 different professional organizations. However, over the past four seasons it became evident that Tayou has found a home in the Major Arena Soccer League. 

Tayou won his fourth MASL league MVP award this April. His first one came a couple years ago following an astute 2015-16 season. Tayou also earned All-MASL First Team honors for those four seasons. 

Tayou played for the Mountaineers for two seasons where he helped lead WVU to back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances. He is now a member of the Ontario Fury soccer team. 

In his 2010 campaign with the Mountaineers, Tayou led WVU with nine goals (5 game winning) and an assist.
