IRVINE, Calif. (August 10, 2015) - Orange County Blues FC has signed goalkeeper Josh Cohen. Previously with the Burlingame Dragons FC, Cohen has begun training with the Blues in preparation for the remainder of the season.

Born in Mountain View, Calif., Cohen played at UC San Diego, where his performance in the net during his junior and senior seasons garnered him back-to-back CCAA Most Valuable Defensive Player awards.

During his junior season, Cohen was the NCAA Division II leader in individual goals against average and save percentage. After helping the Tritons advance to the third round of the 2013 NCAA Division II Championships during his senior campaign, Cohen earned NSCAA first team All-America honors.

At the beginning of 2015, the goalkeeper signed with the Burlingame Dragons in its first year as part of the Premier Development League. In his 11 games playing for the Dragons, Cohen held an 8-1-2 record, ranking 5th in the PDL with a 0.636 goals against average, and 3rd in shutouts with seven scoreless matches.

"I'm really excited to be joining the Blues and beginning my professional career. I hope to continue integrating with the team, improve my ability, and make a positive impact in any way I can," said Cohen.

The Blues next travel to Scottsdale, Ariz. to face Arizona United SC on Saturday, August 15th. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. PT.
