Spencer left Xavier before graduating and was selected 23rd overall in the 2013 MLS SuperDraft by the New England Revolution; becoming the first Xavier soccer player to be taken in the draft. Four days into training camp with New England he tore the ACL in his right knee and subsequently was not signed by New England. Seven months later he attempted to return to New England but was again sidelined when he tore his meniscus. This would require multiple surgeries.
