In 1993, Troy signed with the Cleveland Crunch of the National Professional Soccer League (NPSL), helping lead them to the 1993–1994 NPSL title.
In 1995, he signed with the San Jose Grizzlies of the Continental Indoor Soccer League (CISL).
In 1996, he was selected by MetroStars in second round of the Inaugural MLS Draft (19th overall).
Troy, who had strong roots in the San Francisco Bay Area, refused to sign with the league and move his family to the New York area.
Therefore, he was traded by the MetroStars to the San Jose Clash (later to be named the Earthquakes) in exchange for Rhett Harty and first round pick in 1996 College Draft.
He was a solid starter for the Clash until, in August 1997, he suffered a violent collision snapping his head backwards.
Troy's neck was already aggravated due to two previous neck injuries, and he was very close to becoming paralyzed.

After a long march to recovery, he rejoined the Clash in 1998, going on loan to the San Francisco Bay Seals for one game, only to be waived at the end of the season.
In 1999 Dayak signed with the San Francisco Bay Seals of the A-League.
Early in the 1999 season, Dayak suffered a major knee injury damaging his medial collateral ligament (MCF) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL).
After a difficult recovery complicated by infection, Troy rejoined the Seals for the 2000 campaign as a player and coach.
He was honored that season when he made the A League all stars.
In 2001 Troy was signed by Frank Yallop, new head coach of the San Jose Earthquakes.
When not suffering from a multitude of injuries (upper back sprain, shoulder sprain, neck sprain, abdominal strain, sports hernia, food poisoning), Troy has been a solid starter for the Quakes, helping lead the team to two MLS Cups in 2001 and 2003.
