Career
College & Youth
Mark Pridham played five years of college soccer at California Polytechnic State University between 2009 and 2013, including a red-shirt year in 2010.[1]
Professional
On January 21, 2014 Pridham was selected in the fourth round (58th overall) of the 2014 MLS SuperDraft by Vancouver Whitecaps FC.[2] However, he wasn't signed by the club.
Pridham signed with NASL club Minnesota United on April 29, 2014. He made his debut on May 12, 2014 in a 0-1 loss to New York Cosmos.[3]
On July 21, 2013, Pridham was loaned to the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of the USL until September 30, 2014.[4]
Pridham signed with Whitecaps FC 2 in the USL on March 17, 2015.[5]
While on trial with Sacramento Republic FC, Pridham scored the only goal for the home side in a friendly 1-2 loss to MLS side, San Jose Earthquakes on February 20, 2016,[6] securing his position with the club, signing a contract three days later.[7] Pridham mirrored his efforts against Highway 99 rivals, Fresno Fuego,[8] proving a productive preseason for the forward. In order to pursue his soccer career, Pridhim put an entrepreneurial career on hold resulting in taking home much less money.[9]
