Career

Youth

In Jamaica Walsh played for local team Willodwale FC before transferring to Spanish Town Police FC in July 2012.[3][4]

College and semi-professional

Walsh played one season of college soccer for the Vikings of Jefferson College in 2015. During the season, he tallied 25 goals and 14 assists in 20 matches and was named a NJCAA All-American.[5]

For the 2016 PDL season, Walsh signed for the Ocean City Nor'easters of the Premier Development League. During the season, he scored 14 goals in 14 matches and won the league golden boot (top scorer) award. Following the season, he was named to the 2016 All-PDL team. His 14 goals set a new team record in that category as he tied the existing team record of 31 points for the season. He was then named #2 on PDL's list of top prospects behind only Christian Chaney[6] and the winner of the PDL MVP award.[7]

Professional

On 19 August 2016 it was announced that Walsh had signed a 3-year deal for the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of the United Soccer League.[8][9] He made his professional debut on 27 August 2016 as a substitute in a 1–1 draw with the Harrisburg City Islanders.[10] On 3 September 2016 he made his first start for the club and scored his first professional goal as Pittsburgh defeated Orlando City B 2–0 in only his second appearance for the Riverhounds.[11][12]
