Christopher Lannom '20 Recruiting Profile

I am a goalkeeper on both the Texas Spurs 01/02 Team and their U19 Showcase Team which plays NCAA D3 schools, National Premier League, and in showcase tournaments.  Last year I was the goalkeeper on the Solar SC (Dallas, TX) U17 National Premier Team.  I have excellent conditioning and can play multiple games daily if needed to.  I can effectively distribute the ball and start counter-attacks.  On the transition to attack, I have the leg power and accuracy to penetrate up the field when required and I'm also excellent in running a "possession-based attack" that plays out of the back.

I'm very good at relieving pressure from my backline and regularly receive back-passes to help my team maintain possession and control.  I have great footwork and can comfortably pass with either foot while at the same time maintaining my focus and composure when pressured by attacking forwards.  In my half of the field, I'm very proficient in communicating, directing, and organizing set pieces and defend well against corners, free kicks, and PKs.

My height, reach, leaping ability, and timing work to my team's advantage in these instances.  I have very good reactions and intuition regarding 1v1 shot-stopping.  When scored upon I'm able to quickly and decisively refocus and move forward.  I lead confidently, maintain a positive mentality throughout the game, and am highly coachable.  I'm also an Eagle Scout, have a Black Belt in Taekwondo, and am a U.S Soccer Association nationally-certified Grade 7 referee.
