Steve Johnson - University of Minnesota Gophers - Part 1

How I Got Here with Corey Koskie

As a youth athlete, Steve Johnson loves to compete. He loves sports and plays baseball, hockey, and soccer. He wants to win. As he is getting to high school age he starts to lean more towards hockey. He is small and he is playing a physical sport at a physical position. He doesn't let that stop him and learns at every stage of the way. He gets his growth spurt and blooms into a hockey player that gets a full ride to the University of Minnesota and is drafted by the LA Kings. It seems easy right, NO! Steve has to fight against fate many times to get where he is today. In this Episode, Steve tells stories of getting cut from his high school hockey team and what he had to do to get noticed by the University of Minnesota Gophers --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/linklete/support
