Muir joins the Triumph after three seasons with the University of Kentucky Wildcats men's soccer.

"We have been tracking Marqes from his time at the University of Kentucky," said GM and Technical Director Zach Prince. "His athletic profile and mentality is a great fit for our game model. After speaking with him it was clear that this was a great match for both Marqes and our club."
