Good to see them grab a GK. What an opportunity to develop under one of the best

I actually think Ben Lundt will be the next goalkeeper.

I thought he played well in Burki’s absence last year.

Thanks for posting. In prior years, I was stoked for this. It somehow completely evaded my attention.

Honestly, they performed so poorly, I’m shocked they only drafted 7th.

Just haven’t had much luck with the SuperDraft.

There were a couple of UMKC players.

Didn’t see anyone from Missouri State though.
