Coach Clark on Jones: "He has electric pace and great feet, which makes him a very tough matchup defender. He had a great season with Highline CC and before that was a standout for the Seattle Sounders Academy. He has big shoes to fill with the departure of Brent Richards, but I believe he's ready to make a big impact."
