| Combine Coach's Overall Comments |
| Jon has some good technical skils and excellent physical presence. Good height which he can use more to his advantage. He needs to be more vocal and provide more specific direction and organization. He needs to work on not diving backwards and get better angles between the goal and the ball. |
