Professional

In 1989, while still in college, Conway spent the summer playing with F.C. Portland in the Western Soccer Alliance. There is a two year gap in his career between 1991 and 1993. In 1993, Conway signed with Carlisle United of the English Football League. During his four seasons with Carlisle, Conway and his team mates bounced between the second and third divisions. In 1997, Conway moved to Northampton Town in a free transfer. He failed to settle into the first team and was sent on loan to Scarborough F.C.. In 1998, Conway returned to the United States and signed with Charleston Battery in the second division USL A-League. He spent seven seasons with the Battery. His best year with the team came in 2001 when he led the league in both goals and points, earning both first team All Star and MVP honors. On May 20, 2005, the Portland Timbers signed Conway. He played one season, scoring a single goal in thirteen games, and was released at the end of the season.
