Milwaukee Bavarians midfielder Amilcar Herrera (Milwaukee Riverside) earned a spot on the National Premier Soccer League National Championships Best 11.
The Marquette player missed several late-season matches because of plantar fasciitis in his foot, but returned to the lineup for the Midwest Division champions for last week's NPSL Final Four in Madison, Ala.
Herrera, who led the Bavarians with four goals during Midwest play, created several chances for himself and teammates in their 3-0 loss to Hollywood United in the semifinals and their 5-0 loss to the Erie Admirals in the third-place game.
The Best 11 was selected by local media and league officials.
