Sounders announce sixth Homegrown Player signing

The HGP list grows to Yedlin, Okoli, Kovar, Jones, Mansaray and Schweitzer.

Yedlin and Morris get most of the headlines out of the Seattle Sounders Academy. Victor Mansaray gets some mention because he's so young. Now joining Darwin Jones as a senior signing a Homegrown Player contract with his hometown club is Everett's own Jordan Schweitzer.

Schweitzer played college ball with the University of Denver for four years. He was locked in as a starter notching 70 starts and three sub appearances. As a defensive midfielder and a regular captain the Academy and Sounders U23 product controls the midfield and his teammates.
