Luke McCormick, (born 15 August 1983 in Coventry, England) is a goalkeeper for the English football team Plymouth Argyle.

[edit] Biography

McCormick started the 2003–04 season as a backup for Romain Larrieu, but when Larrieu sustained an injury to his cruciate knee ligaments, he soon proved himself a competent replacement. Upon winning a 2–0 game over Stockport County on 24 January 2004, McCormick set a new club record of seven consecutive "clean sheets" (games without conceding a goal), leading him to be voted the most promising player of the 2003–04 season by Plymouth Argyle fans.

Larrieu regained his place as first choice keeper shortly into the 2004–05 season. In October 2004, the Plymouth Argyle manager, Bobby Williamson sent McCormick on loan to Boston United of League Two, so that he could continue playing first-team football.
