Career

[edit]

Youth and college

[edit]

Trager attended high school at San Clemente High School, whilst also playing club soccer with Strikers FC Academy.[1] In 2018, Trager attended the United States Air Force Academy and was part of the college soccer team.[2][3] In four seasons with the Falcons, Trager went on to make 58 appearances, scoring 29 goals and tallying eleven assists. He earned honors including First-team All-WAC in 2019, All-WAC Honorable Mention in 2020–21, and was named Offensive Player of the Year for the Western Athletic Conference and First Team All-WAC for the 2021–22 season.[1]

Professional

[edit]

On January 11, 2022, Trager was selected 47th overall in the 2022 MLS SuperDraft by Atlanta United.[4][5][6] Trager didn't immediately sign with Atlanta, opting instead to see out his senior year with the Air Force. He signed with the club's USL Championship affiliate side Atlanta United 2 on June 1, 2022.[7]

On January 17, 2023, Trager was transferred to USL Championship side Charleston Battery for an undisclosed fee.[8] After one season with Charleston, Trager was acquired by fellow Championship side Monterey Bay FC for an undisclosed fee on January 31, 2024.[9]

Following the 2024 season, Monterey declined to pick up his contract option and he became a free agent. [10] On December 17, 2024 Orange County Soccer Club announced the signing of Trager for the 2025 season.[11]
