Devin Boyce (born September 8, 1996) is an American soccer player who plays as a midfielder for Forward Madison FC in USL League One.[1]

Career

Union Omaha

Just four days before Union Omaha's first USL League One match, Boyce was brought into the club.[2] He made his debut for the club in their first ever competitive match against New England Revolution II.[3] Despite Boyce's late introduction to the first team, he appeared in all 16 of Omaha's 2020 league matches en route to the club's runner-up championship finish.

Boyce's sophomore season saw him continue to feature prominently, scoring five goals in 27 appearances as Union Omaha claimed the league title. During the regular season, Boyce recorded the second-highest assist number in the league with eight, and tallied a total of 40 key passes.[4] He was named to the USL League One All-League Second Team following the 2021 season.[4] Boyce's playoff volley against FC Tucson was additionally named the Fans' Choice Goal of the Year.[5] At the time of his departure, Boyce was the club's leading player in both appearances and assists.[6]

Memphis 901

On January 20, 2022, Boyce signed with USL Championship side Memphis 901.[7] Boyce struggled to break into the starting 11 in his sole season with the club, making just two starts and 13 additional appearances off the bench. At the end of 2022, Boyce departed the club.

Greenville Triumph

Boyce returned to USL League One ahead of the 2023 season, signing with Greenville Triumph on January 26, 2023.[8]

Forward Madison

Following the 2023 season, Boyce left Greenville and signed with rival USL League One club Forward Madison on January 4, 2024.[9][10] Boyce started and scored in his debut for the club, a 1–1 away draw at South Georgia Tormenta FC.[11] After scoring twice in the opening month of the season, Boyce was nominated for the league's Player of the Month award for March.[12]

Personal life

Boyce's father, Barney, played professionally in the NASL and MISL during the 1980s and 1990s.[13] Boyce attributes his work rate to his father's influence.[14]
