ROANOKE, VA - The Rail Yard Dawgs announced on Thursday that forward Jared Christy has been placed on waivers.

After finishing his senior season at the University of New England (NCAA-DIII) in the spring of 2023, Christy appeared in two games for the ECHL's Iowa Heartlanders. The Cypress, California native appeared in two games for the Evansville Thunderbolts early in the 2023-2024 season before heading to Europe.

Christy went on to join the Birmingham Bulls in late January, tallying three goals, three assists, 15 penalty minutes, and a plus-three rating for the Bulls in 21 games played.
