The 22-year-old, who had a previous stint at Western Michigan University before joining the Wildcats last year, arrives on a semi-guaranteed deal for the 2023 MLS season.
He recorded 18 clean sheets during his collegiate career. He also played two seasons with USL League Two club Flint City Bucks, making 25 total appearances with three clean sheets during his first season.
“Isaac was a good addition throughout the preseason and proved that he deserves a spot on the roster,” Charlotte’s sporting director Zoran Krneta said in a press release.
“During his collegiate career, Isaac was impressive in between the posts and will help bring depth to the goalkeeper position as he continues his development in the professional ranks.”
