In 2017, Lapert arrived at the University of Charleston, going on to make 21 appearances for the Golden Eagles, scoring five goals and adding a single assist on the way to help the team to win the National Championship.[4] 2018 saw Lapert transfer to the University of Connecticut, who he made 40 appearances for, scoring four goals and tallying one assist in his three seasons with the Huskies.[5][6]

Following college, Lapert was eligible in the 2021 MLS SuperDraft, but went undrafted.[7]

On 1 September 2022, Lapert signed with USL Championship club Hartford Athletic.[8][9] He made his debut for Hartford on 17 September 2022, appearing as a 86th-minute substitute during a 3–0 win over Las Vegas Lights.[10] On 26 November 2022, it was announced Lapert would remain with Hartford for their upcoming 2023 season.[11]
