After playing college soccer for the University of New Haven, Serioux started his pro career with the Toronto Lynx in the A-League. He then moved to England and Millwall. Serioux is known to have one of the longest throws in the sport, once setting up a goal against Leicester City, from a throw-in at the half way line. Unfortunately for Millwall, after Serioux's exciting and promising debut the Canadian's game witnessed a marked decline.

Serioux joined MLS in March 2006, signing with the MetroStars, leaving England in order to take care of his ill father. However, he never played for the club, traded to Houston for Danny O'Rourke before the regular season started. After one season will Houston, where Serioux played well and helped the team to the MLS Cup, he was drafted by Toronto FC in 2006 MLS Expansion Draft. He stayed with Toronto for only a few hours before being dealt to FC Dallas for Ronnie O'Brien.

As of early 2006, Serioux has earned nine caps for the Canadian national team.
