PHOENIX (December 19, 2017) — Phoenix Rising FC announced today it has signed goalkeeper Dallas Jaye for the 2018 season. Jaye had spent the last two seasons with USL side FC Cincinnati. He also spent time with Premier Development League side FC Tucson where he helped the club reach the third round of the 2013 U.S. Open Cup.
“I am very excited to be joining Phoenix Rising for the 2018 season,” Jaye said. “I am thankful for the coaching staff and front office for giving me the opportunity to be apart of this club that is building something very special. I plan on giving my all for the city and doing everything I can to help bring a USL Cup to Phoenix. I cannot wait to get down to there and meet my new teammates, the staff, and all the fans. The best is yet to come!”
