Hannes Budde '24 Recruiting Profile

Born in Germany and now residing in Hershey, PA, I bring a unique international perspective to the college program. As a skilled goalkeeper, my height and agility make me a formidable shot-stopper, excelling in one-on-one situations. Additionally, my strong distribution skills contribute to the team's overall strategy. I am committed to enhancing the program with my diverse experiences and unwavering dedication on the field.

"Hannes is a good sized keeper. Nevertheless he is agil, and quick. He is ambitious and a fast learner. In my opinion he has the requirements for a good keeper: he is steadfast and plays well under pressure."

“Hannes' finesse in goal has become more apparent with every game he plays. His shot blocking ability is excellent and he anticipates his opponents while commanding his box. He would be an asset to any program."

“Hannes is a great sized keeper! With all the talent that he has, his height and frame are already a huge advantage to him. One of his biggest strengths is that he already knows how to use them to his advantage. 
Hannes' reflexes and stopping ability are top notch! He knows how to close angles and he is very good with his one vs one abilities also. He makes it very hard for strikers to freeze him which can be frustrating for the opponents. Hannes' passing ability is excellent as he can spot pressure points and be part of the play. He can be an asset to any program. 
I was comparing him lately to Yassine Bounou from FC Seville. I am sure he will keep striving and improving for the bright future he has.”
