Career

[edit]

On January 17, 2012, it was announced that Cato had signed with Seattle Sounders.[1][2] After making 8 competitive appearances in one season, the Sounders declined to pick up a contract option on Cato.[3]

Cato's MLS rights were traded to the San Jose Earthquakes on March 1, 2013.[4] Cato's time with the Earthquakes came to an end when his contract expired on December 31, 2017.[5] After his release by San Jose, he trialed with the Earthquakes' arch-rivals LA Galaxy, but ultimately was not signed.[6]

On March 9, 2018, Cato signed with USL side Charlotte Independence for the 2018 season.[7] He left Charlotte at the end of their 2018 season.[8]

On January 9, 2019, Cato joined USL side OKC Energy.[9]
