He will be a key addition to the team at the midfield position this year. Head Coach Tim Soudan couldn’t be more excited about the trade. He had this to say about the addition of JoJo: “Picking up JOJO this offseason was a no brainer I have been trying to make a deal for him the last couple years. He is a great player that can play from day one which takes away any uncertainty with a draft pick. I think we are lucky to have him and he seems really excited to play with the Rattlers I know he will fit right in with the guys.”We had the chance to talk with JoJo regarding being traded to the Rattlers and his thoughts on the 2017 season.
