Scurti moved to the United States with his family when he was eleven. In 1972, he signed with the Baltimore Bays of the American Soccer League. In 1974, he moved to the Baltimore Comets of the North American Soccer League in 1974. He played the 1974 and 1975 NASL seasons in Baltimore, but moved to the San Diego Jaws for the 1976 season after the Comets folded. He played the 1978 season with the California Surf but played only two games with them.[3]
