Forward Madison's Don Smart has won the USL League One Midseason MVP award, the league announced Wednesday. Smart has scored four goals and added three assists in the Flamingos' first 13 matches.

Smart, a veteran forward from Jamaica, has been the catalyst for FMFC's success this season. His 20 key passes are tied for third in League One, and he has recorded a team-leading 28 crosses with an accuracy rate of 35.7 percent and also chipped in defensively with 11 tackles won and 12 interceptions.

Smart's victory was aided by the efforts of FMFC's fanatical supporters, which helped him win via a league-wide vote. Smart was the Flamingos' first-ever player signing, having joined in October 2018.

Forward Madison received additional League One recognition this Tuesday, when the league announced that midfielder Eric Leonard and defender Connor Tobin had both made their Team of the Week.

The Flamingos currently sit in seventh place, just five points off the playoff positions, but seeking to move up this Saturday as they travel to Statesboro, Ga. to take on second place South Georgia Tormenta FC.
