National recognition for TOPSoccer Coach of the Year, Goal of the Year, and Save of the Year.
MAINEVILLE, Ohio (Jan. 25, 2022) —Three Ohio residents have received national recognition from US Youth Soccer (USYS).
Steve McCollum was awarded the National TOPSoccer Coach of the Year by USYS for his work and dedication to the Cincinnati TOPSoccer program. TOPSoccer is a soccer-specific program for youth and children with special needs, affording them an opportunity to play the sport, make friends, and have fun. Ohio has 11 TOPSoccer programs spread throughout the state, each operating independently as a member organization of Ohio Soccer Association. TOPSoccer programs rely heavily on volunteer coaches and ‘buddies’ – youth or adults who attend practice and games with players to offer friendship and support.
Two players from the Metro FC B06 Rapids team were voted by the public as USYS National Goal of the Year winner and National Save of the Year finalist.
Landon Haas won National Goal of the Year with a beautiful bicycle kick in a Great Lakes Conference (National League) game.
Selleck Burggraf was the runner-up for National Save of the Year with an immense double save in the 2021 Ohio South State Cup.

OSA congratulates all the winners and finalist on their success and thanks them for representing Ohio to the best of their abilities.
