Penn FC News Release
Harrisburg, PA - The City Islanders have brought a new addition into the squad via the signing of Arizona United forward Cameron Vickers. The 27 year old Vickers is from Auburn Washington and played his college soccer at Sonoma State University from 2008-2010 where he made 68 appearances and tallied 10 goals.
Vickers professional career began with the Tacoma Tide of the Premier Development League (PDL) from 2008-11 making 45 appearances and finding the net 6 times. In 2012 he moved to the Portland Timbers U23 side where he would score 4 times in 15 appearances. Vickers first appeared in the USL in 2013 with Phoenix FC scoring once in 15 appearances before returning to the PDL to play for the Dayton Dutch Lions in 2014. The forward was signed by Arizona United prior to the start of the 2015 season. Vickers struggled to find a consistent spot in the side during his time at Arizona United which led him to New Zealand to play at Lower Hutt City AFC for a short stint. But for the rest of the season he should be a valuable addition to the City Islanders attacking core.
