Talking Pockets: Matt Russell, Team STX Goalie

A couple weekends ago we were lucky enough to make it down to LXM 801 in Orem, UT. I caught a peek of Matt Russell and Johnny Rodriguez’s goalie clinic and I noticed something a little different about Matt’s pocket.

One of the high school guys, focused on the lesson, pulled Matt aside when he was done talking to the group. He had almost the same stick, but Matt’s pocket was anywhere from 3 to 6 inches deeper. For Matt it’s simple, “use shooting string at the throat”. Find out why in this week’s Talking Pockets, LXM Pro style.

More from Matt and Johnny is coming soon, follow how they stay in shape in the off season and what helped them find success.
