Descalso went on to UC Davis, where he played third base and majored in economics.
In 2007, Descalso was named to the NCAA All-Independent First Team.
He put up some of the best stats ever at UC Davis, with a .397 lifetime batting average and 92 career hits.

He was selected in the highest draft position ever for an Aggie player.
He is 5ft 10in and 190 pounds.
Following the draft, Descalso began his professional career with the Batavia Muckdogs, the Short-Season A affiliate of the Cardinals in the New York–Penn League.
He played 69 games for the Muckdogs in 2007, splitting time between third base and second base.
In 2008, Descalso began with the Palm Beach Cardinals, the High-A affiliate of the Cardinals in the Florida State League.
In August 2008, he was advanced to the Springfield Cardinals, the Double-A affiliate in Missouri.
He played in just 9 games, but hit .351.
In 2009 with Springfield, Descalso had eight home runs and 51 runs batted in with 288 at-bats over 73 games, all at second base.
His line was an impressive .323/.396/.531.
At the end of the 2009 season, he was named to the Double-A Texas League post-season all star team.
However, he did not play in that game, instead was promoted to Triple-A Memphis in early July when Jarrett Hoffpauir was recalled by the Cardinals.
After the call up, Descalso played most games at 2nd base, with 9 at 1st base.

He missed final two weeks of 2009 season to play for the gold medal winning team USA in the 2009 Baseball World Cup in Italy.

The Cardinals invited Descalso to the 2010 spring camp, where he batted .500 with nine runs batted in during 14 games.
Through the first two months of the 2010 season, he exclusively played second base.
On September 18, Descalso's contract was purchased by the Cardinals and he was promoted to the major leagues.
He officially made his major league debut on September 18, 2010, at home against the San Diego Padres when he was announced as a pinch hitter (although he did not bat and was replaced by right-handed batter Nick Stavinoha).
His first game as a starter was on September 22, 2010, against the Pirates at their park, where he garnered his first hit and first run batted in with a two-run double.
It was at third base, rather than his usual second base position.
Nonetheless, his first MLB career fielding attempt was the front end of a 6–4–3 double play (Descalso-Schumaker–Pujols).
He finished the year solidly, and remained on the 40-man roster.
He played 115 games in Jupiter, where he batted .243 and played shortstop, 2nd base, and 3rd base.
Because of his late season performance, Descalso started the 2011 spring training with a legitimate chance to make the Cardinals.
