MLS club San Jose Earthquakes announced the recipients of the team's end-of-season awards Wednesday night prior to their match against Chivas USA.

Forward and league MVP candidate Chris Wondolowski took home the team's Most Valuable Player award, while Jon Busch was named Defensive Player of the Year and Jason Hernandez was recognized as the MLS W.O.R.K.S. Humanitarian of the Year.
