Across the Atlantic Ocean and 3,892 miles away from his hometown of Bristol, England, former Butler men’s soccer standout David Goldsmith lives out his dream as a professional soccer player.
Six miles separate Butler’s campus from Carroll Stadium, where Goldsmith’s new team, Indy Eleven of the North American Soccer League, play their home games.
In his four seasons as a Bulldog, Goldsmith netted 41 goals. He was named Big East Co-Offensive Player of the Year and a NSCAA second team All-American in his senior season.
