Enzo DiPede was a goalkeeper who played in the original Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL).
Di Pede was a member of the MISL Champion New York Arrows as a backup goalkeeper in 1979–1980. Di Pede won MISL Goalkeeper of the Year honors in 1981 as a member of the Chicago Horizon[1] and later played for the Kansas City Comets. Born in Canada to immigrant parents from Italy, DiPede idolized long-time Italian national team goalkeeper Dino Zoff as a young soccer player.
DiPede led a series of youth soccer camps in Kansas City with fellow MISL players Billy Gazonas, Gino Schiraldi, and Warren Green, training among others Chris Damico, who went on to play goalkeeper for the Comets in the new MISL. After retiring, DiPede opened a bagel shop and catering company in Kansas City.
