The New England Revolution on Tuesday signed goalkeeper Jacob Jackson, the 24th pick in the first round of the 2022 MLS SuperDraft, to a one-year contract with club options through the 2025 season.

Jackson, 21, was a three-year starter at Loyola Marymount, where he had a 26-8-8 record. The native of Escondido, Calif., was named the West Coast Conference Goalkeeper of the Year and an All-WCC first-team selection in both 2020 and 2021.

As a redshirt junior in 2021, Jackson had a career-high 11 wins, allowing only 12 goals in 17 games and getting eight shutouts.

The Revolution finished first in the Eastern Conference last season, going 22-5-7, but were eliminated in the conference semifinals.
