After a successful three-year college career at the University of Portland, Pearce signed with FC Nordsjælland and began his professional career in the 2005-06 Danish Superliga season.
He made his international debut in November 2005 against Scotland. Pearce was included by Bruce Arena in United States training camps and friendly matches prior to the 2006 FIFA World Cup but did not make the team. New head coach Bob Bradley invited Pearce to camp in January 2007.[1]
