BIO
Jackson Walti is entering his first season with Riverhounds SC in 2022.
In his first pro season last year, Walti began the year with Austin’s reserve side in MLS Next Pro before being loaned within the league to Colorado Rapids 2. He finished the year with 20 appearances (nine starts) and one assist between the two clubs.
Walti was a key part of the University of Pittsburgh’s teams that reached the College Cup semifinals in 2020 and 2022 after first arriving at the school as a walk-on. He would go on to finish as the school’s career leader in minutes played, netting six goals and five assists, before being the second-round pick of Austin FC in the 2023 MLS SuperDraft.
