Mahler's Take
"David possesses the skills to be a premier collegiate goalkeeper. He is quick, agile and his presence in the box makes things look easier than they are. His size and athleticism will enhance the ability of our defense to defuse various serves into the box and his shot stopping skills will allow our defenders to be more aggressive and less tentative in regards to individual challenges around the box. David's success at the high school and club level has prepared him well for the next chapter in his career. He should compete for the starting spot upon his pre-season arrival."
