Former professional and Indiana University goalkeeper Matt Reiswerg enters his fifth season in 2010 as the Goalkeeper Coach on Head Coach Steve Franklin’s staff.

In 2006, Reiswerg helped Drew Deffner to a banner campaign, earning Second Team All Mid-Con honors. The defense posted five shutouts and a 1.60 goals against average while Deffner notched a .760 save percentage. In 2007, David Barszczowski’s 1.32 goals against average helped lead the Jags to the Summit League championship match. In 2008, Reiswerg helped freshman goalkeeper Tyler Keever rank among The Summit League leaders in nearly every major statistical category, including a 1.26 goals against average. The 2009 campaign was also a great year for IUPUI’s goalkeepers, as Reiswerg oversaw starter Keever (1.24 goals against average) and Alex Mannen (0.95) combine to post the Jags’ lowest team goals against average since the NCAA-tournament team in 2000. The pair combined for an .825 save percentage.

Additionally, the Hoosiers captured four Big Ten regular season and two tournament titles during his playing career. He was a 4-time Alpha Beta academic honoree while playing for the Hoosiers.

He also played for the Indiana Blast following his time with Cincinnati.
