Most collegiate programs carry 3 to 4 goalies max. This season Coach T and the Denver Pioneers had 7 goalies on the roster.
Junior Jack Thompson beat everyone out and just finished a stellar sophomore season where he was 2nd team All Big East (behind goalie of the year Owen McElroy).
I remember seeing a picture of Jack Thompson when I was doing my college stick setup post this year. There’s no way this kid isn’t coached by Ryan LaPlante, I thought to myself. Indeed he was.
Thompson has worked with LaPlante and Trevor Tierney with Goalie Evolution Academy and now continues to help coach youth goalies as well.
Jack joins the podcast to discuss his path to D1 lacrosse, his training regiment, beating out 6 goalies, and what its like to be coached by a legend in Coach Bill Tierney.
Enjoy this conversation with a rising goalie start Jack Thompson.
Lacrosse is my passion! The game has given me so much and this blog is my way of giving back to the lax community. Specifically the most bad a$$ part of that community - the goalies! After learning to play goalie from scratch, I wanted to create a site where I could share what I learned with others so they too can become champions in the crease and in life.
