1996 Major League Soccer top scorers
1. Roy Lassiter (USA), Tampa Bay Mutiny - 27 goals
2. Raul Diaz Arce (El Salvador), DC United - 23 goals
3. Eduardo Hurtado (Ecuador), LA Galaxy - 21 goals
4. Preki (USA), Kansas City Wiz - 18 goals
5. Brian McBride (USA), Columbus Crew - 17 goals
The 1996 incarnation of the MLS was the first professional soccer (or football) league in USA since 1984.
Roy Lassiter had his best career in the season, scoring 27 goals and winning the top scorer league ahead of Salvadorian striker Arce, who is his countrys best ever goal scorer with 39 in 68 appearances for his national team.
Yugoslavian born attacking midfielder Preki, who also had a tenure in England, also takes place on the list, just like the perhaps most recognnizable name of the list - Brian McBride, who later had success in Everton and Fulham and made 30 goals in 95 international appearances. He also made three World Cups (1998. 2002, 2006), just missing out on the 1994 squad.
