T-Wolves MSOC sign Richmond striker

The UNBC Timberwolves Men’s Soccer has added some more offensive flair.

Earlier today (Monday), head coach Steve Simonson announced Richmond-born striker Josh Jordan has committed to the varsity club.

Jordan will soon be graduating from Hugh McRoberts Secondary.

Last season he finished with 11 goals in eight games while suiting up for Steve Miller’s Fusion FC.

“I like to make runs behind the defense and get on the ball as much as I can,” said Jordan who visited UNBC in November 2024 alongside fellow 2025 commit Jayden Lidder. “I enjoy taking players on and scoring lots of goals.”

His initial plan will be to study Psychology at UNBC and his transition to University life should be made all the easier due to the fact that his older brother James heading into his third season with the T-Wolves.

“Taking the field with brother at the U SPORTS level will be an amazing feeling,” added Jordan. “During my recent visit, everybody was great and inclusive, and the intensity of their training sessions was very impressive.”

“Josh is a tenacious forward with a proven track record of scoring goals at the youth level. I’ve seen him create and score chances out of nothing in many of the games in I’ve seen him play in,” shared Steve Simonson.

“He still has some great growth potential ahead of him as well which I think will make him a dominant U SPORTS striker as he progresses during his time at UNBC. On top of that he has a great character, work rate, and hunger to improve. We can’t wait to have him join us this fall.”
