SPOKANE, Wash. — The Spokane Velocity are shoring up the back line by signing former Gonzaga soccer player Jalen Crisler.
From Everett, Crisler (30) played for Gonzaga between 2013 and 2017 including a 2016 All-WCC First Team nod.
Since his professional debut, the defender has played for Detroit City FC, Forward Madison, Richmond Kickers, and One Knoxville FC.
“We are happy to have Jalen back in Spokane. He’s very familiar with the city and community from his time with Gonzaga University so it fills him with pride to be back here to represent the city again,” said head coach Leigh Veidman. “He brings a ton of experience, leadership and competition to our back line which is going to be imperative to push our team to consistently higher levels this year.”
You can watch Crisler and the Velocity in their upcoming home match against One Knoxville this Sunday, March 16 at ONE Spokane Stadium.
