Flood attended Hauppauge High School and played four years of college soccer at Hofstra University. He was drafted by the Revolution in the 2nd round of the 2007 MLS Supplemental Draft and was signed to a developmental contract.
Flood saw limited time in his rookie season, making five appearances, usually as a defensive midfielder. Even though only making five appearances, he made two starts, one of them being the season opener. Due to being a defensive midfielder below Shalrie Joseph and Jeff Larentowicz on the depth chart, Flood saw as little playing time in 2008 as he did his rookie season, and the club did not renew his developmental contract after the 2008 season.
Having not found a professional club to play for in 2009, Flood signed with Long Island Rough Riders of the USL Premier Development League for the 2009 season.[1]
