David Bingham had arguably his best season between the pipes in 2016.


To no surprise, San Jose fans weren’t the only ones that took notice.


On Monday, Soccer America named David Bingham the top goalkeeper in MLS during the 2016 season ahead of the likes of New York’s Luis Robles and Colorado’s Tim Howard.


Ridge Mahoney, author of the article, praised Bingham’s campaign by highlighting a few impressive stats posted by the Castro Valley native:


Bingham finished fifth in save percentage (72.6), tied for fourth in shutouts (8), and was the main reason the goal-challenged Quakes -- they scored, 32, seven fewer than any other team -- stayed anywhere close in the playoff chase.
