PWHL Seattle grabbed one of the PWHL's most popular players this week signing Carly "CJ" Jackson to a one-year contract.
“We are thrilled to welcome CJ to Seattle,” said PWHL Seattle General Manager Meghan Turner. “They are dedicated in every way - as an athlete, a teammate, and an ambassador in the community. CJ consistently demonstrates our values and will be a key component of our goalie group and team.”
Jackson, 28, served as Toronto's third goaltender in the league's first two seasons. Last year, Jackson made their PWHL debut playing 65 minutes (1-0-0: 25 Saves; GAA 0.93) in the regular season. Jackson also appeared in the playoffs for Toronto, getting the call in game four against the Minnesota Frost, a series deciding 4-3 overtime loss.
“I’m stoked to be a part of this historic team in the Emerald City ––- especially a city that hosts legendary women’s sports careers/ teams like Sue Bird and Seattle Storm. I’m ready to bring it to the rink — let’s do this Seattle!”
