  • MLS Goalkeeper of the Year on Mental Focus and Resilience, Jon Busch
    Today we're pleased to learn from a 21-year MLS veteran and MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, Jon Busch. 
    A career with many accolades, Jon started out as both a high school and college All-American. After leaving as an NCAA All-American at UNC-Charlotte, Jon spent the first 5 years of his professional career playing the U.S. I.S.L. where in 2001 he was named Goalkeeper of the Year.
    In 2002 Jon was drafted into the MLS by the Columbus Crew and won the U.S. Open Cup during his 5 seasons with the club. In 2007 Jon joined the Chicago Fire and in 2008 was named MLS Goalkeeper of the Year. Jon later signed with the San Jose Earthquakes and retired in 2018. 
    During his time in San Jose, the idea of High Performance Goalkeeping was formed from a desire to give every youth goalkeeper the opportunity to wear top quality gloves, just like the pros, at affordable prices. You can learn more at https://hpgoalkeeping.com
    Jon shares some fun moments, challenges, solid advice, top opponents and more - enjoy the show!
