Career

Jones was a 3-year starter for Murray Murdoch and played well in net for an otherwise mediocre team. As a junior Jones set a program record by stopping 66 shots in a 1–7 loss to St. Lawrence on December 14 (a record that stands as of 2020).[2] The following year Jones was able to get Yale to post a winning record in both overall and became the first AHCA All-American in program history.[1]
