David Testo
David Testo (b. August 7, 1981) is an American soccer player, currently on loan to the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer from the Richmond Kickers of the A-League.
Testo played his first and second years of college soccer at the University of South Carolina, where he registered 6 goals and 11 assists in 33 games. After his sophomore season, Testo moved to the University of North Carolina, where he emerged as a major force, helping lead the Tarheels to an NCAA Championship his junior season. Testo was named to the All-ACC second team both his seasons at UNC, after scoring 11 goals and 6 assists as a junior, and 7 goals and 9 assists as a senior.
Upon graduating from college, Testo was surprisingly undrafted in the 2003 MLS SuperDraft despite a significant amount of experience with the Youth United States men's national soccer teams, most likely caused by his reputation as being tempermental. Testo therefore signed with the Kickers, with whom he made an immediate impact, playing in 28 games and scoring 6 goals and 2 assists. For his performance, Testo was named the A-League's 2003 Rookie of the Year.
After his performance in the A-League, several MLS teams were interested in Testo, but he ended up with the Columbus Crew. However, Testo's MLS season was a disappointment, as he saw very little playing time.
