Major League Soccer's Portland Timbers announced Thursday former player Cameron Knowles will join the team for the 2012 season as an assistant coach, teaming with Mike Toshack and Amos Magee on head coach John Spencer's staff.
Knowles played professionally for seven seasons, including four with the Timbers while a member of USL First Division from 2007 to 2010. During that time, he played in 77 games, was named a three-time USL-1 All-League selection, was a finalist for the league's Defender of the Year award in 2007 and led the Timbers to the league's Commissioners Cup in 2009 for having the best regular season record.
He most recently played for the Montreal Impact in the 2011 North American Soccer League.
A native of Auckland, New Zealand, Knowles was a two-time All-Mid-American Conference First Team selection while at the University of Akron, where he led them to four straight appearances at the NCAA College Cup tournament.
