Nick Garcia (born April 9, 1979 in Plano, Texas) is an American soccer defender, who currently plays for the Kansas City Wizards of Major League Soccer.

As a senior at Bishop Lynch High School in Dallas, Texas, Garcia won the 1996-97 Gatorade National Boys Socccer Player of the Year award. Garcia played college soccer at Indiana University, leading Indiana to the consecutive national titles in 1998 and 1999, and was named All-American in his final season. He signed with Project-40 and MLS in 2000, and was drafted second overall (behind colossal disappointment Steve Shak) in the 2000 MLS SuperDraft by the Kansas City Wizards.

Garcia has played in -- and started -- almost every game for the Wizards ever since. In 2000, he helped them to win the MLS Cup and the US Open Cup in 2004.

Garcia captained the US Under-20 national team at the World Youth Championship in Nigeria in 1999 and earned his first cap for the full national team on February 12, 2003, against Jamaica. So far, he has amassed six caps for the United States.
