One day after exercising the option on their top scorer from last year, the Riverhounds have added another hopeful scoring threat in forward Devaughn Elliott to a one-year contract with a two-year club option, pending USL and USSF approval.
A native of St. Kitts and Nevis, a small, two-island country in the West Indies, Elliott joins the Hounds with an extensive set of experience at both the professional and international level. He previously played for Murciélagos Fútbol Club in the Ascenso MX, the second tier of professional soccer in Mexico, according to the team’s press release.
“Devaughn, his best trait is that he is fast. He’s got great speed and he’s a very aggressive attacker, so those are both big plusses for this club,” coach Dave Brandt said in the release. “I think him having played in the Mexican second division this past year – that is a quality league where the tempo is also high. It’s a fast, skillful league. Coming out of a league like that, maybe instead of another one where the pace is a bit slower, that’s going to make his transition to the USL that much easier.”
