FC Tucson strengthens its defense once again, this time with the addition of a goalkeeper.
The club announced the signing of 22-year-old Sean Murray Tuesday.
"I'm excited to meet everyone at the club and help build on last season's success," said Murray.
Murray joins the club after being a four-year starter for Monmouth University. He played all 19 games as a senior, collecting 64 saves and posting a 1.06 Goals Against Average for the Hawks. Murray was named to the All-MAAC Team and was All-MAAC Co-Goalkeeper of the Year as a red-shirt junior for the 2021 season.
The Fanwood, New Jersey, native also played with SC (South Carolina) United Bantams during the 2021 USL League Two season. He made five appearances with SC United Bantams, which finished second in the Deep South Division, with 396 minutes played and 14 saves.
"Sean was an all-conference player at Monmouth that was recommended by a number of coaches that we respect," said FC Tucson head coach Jon Pearlman. "We love his physical profile, his attitude towards the game and we think he's somebody we think can help our team this year and down the road."
He is the ninth player on FC Tucson's 2022 roster. He joins six returning starters from the 2021 playoff team, two new defenders and returning goalkeeper Carlos Merancio.
