Youth and college soccer

Stroud set single-season (13) and career (30) assists records during his senior season to help lead Colgate to its first-ever Sweet 16 appearance. He earned Patriot League Tournament MVP honors as a senior after guiding the Raiders to their second-straight league title in 2017.[3]

Stroud finished his career in the Maroon and White with 50 points behind 10 goals and a school-record 30 assists. The four-year starter earned first team All-Patriot League honors as a junior and senior after collecting second team plaudits as a sophomore. He earned All-Region honors in each of his last two seasons. Stroud guided the Raiders to two Patriot League Tournament championships, one regular-season championship and the program's first-ever NCAA Tournament wins during his time at Colgate.[4] Stroud in his youth also brushed shoulders with younger cousin, Jack Queenan.

While with the Raiders, Stroud also appeared for Premier Development League side New York Red Bulls U-23.[5][6][7]
