In July 2019, Haynes committed to attend the University of British Columbia, where he would play for the men's soccer team beginning in the fall.[9][10] He scored his first goal on October 25 against the Alberta Golden Bears, scoring an Olimpico (scoring directly from a corner kick).[11][12] He played in all 21 of the team's matches that season, helping them to a sixth-placed finish at the U SPORTS National Championship.[13] At the end of the season, he was named to the Canada West All-Second Team.[14]
