He would join the Huskies in 2013 and in his two seasons with the team, he made a total of 37 appearances and tallied 15 goals and nine assists and helped lead the Huskies to a Pac-12 title in 2013. He was also named First Team All-Pac-12 in back to back seasons.

Jones also played in the Premier Development League for Seattle Sounders FC U-23.
