MLS Cup Championship
2009 was an amazing season for Real Salt Lake, taking an up-and-down regular season and rallying together down the stretch to create an inspired playoff run that ended with Real hoisting the MLS Cup Trophy. This was Dr. Scholl’s fourth season as a Team Physician with the club, and he is eager to give recognition to the team’s outstanding training staff for their role in the Championship. Head Trainer, Jake Joachim, and the rest of his training staff kept the boys healthy through the long MLS season, minimizing the damage from all the sprains and strains that occur during a campaign. Certainly, some good fortune smiled on the squad, and major injuries that can disrupt a team’s chemistry were largely avoided during the season. However, in the end, that Real was firing on all cylinders with a healthy team for the playoff run, gave them the foundation to shine. Congratulations to Real Salt Lake, 2009 MLS Cup Champions!
