McMahon smashed all expectations leading the Sailfish to a program-best 17 wins, a NCAA Division II South Region Championship, and led the Sailfish to an NCAA Elite Eight appearance. He had seven players named NCAA All-Americans, as four were named to the 2015 Division II Conference Commissioners Association (D2CCA) All-American team, and three were named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-America Team. Coach McMahon was named the 2015 NSCAA South-Region Coach of the Year, and was also named the 2016 Palm Beach County Sports Commission Coach of the Year. In his first season on the sideline for Palm Beach Atlantic, McMahon exceeded expectation and lead the Sailfish to 12 wins, a National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCAA) South Region championship, and a trip to the NCCAA Final Four. He had three individuals honored to the NCCAA All-American team, and saw junior Jermaine Metz named to the Daktronics All-Region second-team. Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of all, however, was PBA earning the National Intercollegiate Soccer Officials Association (NISOA) Sportsmanship Award.

In this role he will be a liaison between the NCAA and the coaches. He will also run the annual business meeting.

His first season was a memorable one as he helped guide the Blazers to their second-ever NAIA National Championship as his team finished 19-4-1 and defeated the University of Mobile 2-0 in the title match. His good work led him to being named the NSCAA and the NAIA National Coach of the Year. The 2013 season saw the McMahon-led Blazers reach the round of eight at the NAIA National Tournament before losing to the eventual national champions, Martin Methodist College, by a 2-1 score in double overtime. The team finished 16-7-1 while extending their programs streak of 49 straight polls of being ranked in the NAIA top-25 coaches poll. Prior to leading the Blazers he spent 12 years as head coach of both the mens and womens programs at Greenville College. His tenure leading both the Panthers mens and womens soccer programs (2000-11) resulted in him becoming the all-time wins leader for both programs while his mens team became the first sport at Greeneville to reach the NCAA National Tournament, which he accomplished on three different occasions. His final five seasons leading the Panthers mens program resulted in a record of 128-58-24 while his final three seasons in charge of the womens team saw him tally a 72-30 record on his way to 276 collegiate wins. Before starting his career in coaching, McMahon played four years at Indiana Wesleyan University where he helped lead his team to a pair of Mid-Central Conference Championships, two NAIA regional appearances and two appearances at the NCCAA National Tournament. He would go on to earn his bachelors degree in psychology at IWU before obtaining his masters degree in kinesiology with a concentration in sport behavior and psychology from Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville.

Through this one day camp, EXACT Soccer has made me realize that my dream is so possible to reach. It's the only camp I've been to, but I was able to meet so many new people who share the same passion as me. I also learned how to elevate my recruiting game to reach my goal much easier.
Parent
I brought my son to this camp not really knowing what to expect and was concerned about how young he was for the camp, since it appears designed around high school level players. I was surprised by the in-depth amount of information that EXACT provided us regarding how to prepare for the college recruitment process. Without a doubt, we would have missed out on the opportunity to know how the process works and the information you provided was insightful and we have confidence moving forward as our son moves into high school and college beyond.
Great job and we look forward to attending more EXACT camps, as well as introduce my younger son to the camps when the time is right. Thank you!
Player
I was surprised to see so many coaches, and having them available to talk to. I wish I would have known about EXACT Sports Elite Camp my junior year. I left feeling like I had personal attention from coaches, and got a better grip on how to navigate the college sports recruitment process.
Great experience meeting coaches, and having the discussion panel with coaches and parents. The games were fun and challenging, which I really enjoyed. Thanks EXACT!
Player
I went to the first ID Camp in Philly. We were so encouraged that we attended this one in DC. I have always dreamed about 1) going to college and 2) playing soccer in college. I got to meet a lot of great coaches and athletes. I learned something new at each camp. I wish there were more camps close to me so we could attend more. I am a senior and need all the help I can get in hopes to find the right college. I loved how the coaches were there to help us and give us directions on the spot. My mentor Coach was Mike Eckberg. Towson is on my "dream" list - and we are now going to schedule a visit as he suggested. I am so excited and I know I still have a long road ahead, but every journey has a beginning. Even though I am getting started a little late, I feel like EXACT really has helped me come flying out of the gate!
Player
This is the first ID Camp that I have attended and it was a positive experience in every way. The camp was very well organized leading up to the camp with very informative emails and preparation work for the camp. On the day of the camp, registration was well organized and the EXACT team was there to help for every step of the way. Chris was an excellent leader and motivated me from the very beginning. It was amazing to be exposed to real college coaches and to be coached both on and off the field. Getting feedback on the day was very rewarding. I am looking forward to attending EXACT Soccer Academic 50 ID Camp in June/July.
Parent
I attended the camp with my son. The information that the EXACT personnel provided was excellent. We are now much more informed regarding the college recruiting and scholarship qualification's. The coaches that mentored the boys were also very knowledgeable, devoted, and fun. The rating that was provided after the camp was very helpful to help guide my son with his future training. The camp helped to boost my son's confidence and love for the game. I cannot say enough about the camp. You guys are the best ! Thanks for your efforts!
Player
The best part about the Exact ID camp was the ability to have one-on-one conversation with 30+ college soccer coaches from all over the United States. These coaches were not only from different part of the country, but also coaches at different levels. They say a big part of getting recruited is building relationships with the coaches, and I believe this was a great way to get started! This camp gave us, athletes, the opportunity to learn the basics of college recruiting, the qualities the coaches looking for in a player, and overall get great tips from them.
Parent
The numerous pieces of advice for student athletes was really good. This camp was a confidence builder for my son, and also empowering. Thanks for a well organized and educational camp.
Player
I had an amazing experience at EXACT Camp. I enjoyed the opportunity to talk face-to-face with so many coaches from around the country. I also enjoyed the opportunity to train with new coaches. I am looking forward to visiting coaches that I met at their schools and getting to take a closer look at their programs. It was also cool to meet so many fellow athletes from other places and make new friends. Thank you so much for everything!! Thank you!!!
Player
EXACT Sports Camp is a key component to being recruited as an athlete. The camp provides you with an opportunity to meet, interact, and train with college coaches from different schools around the nation from different levels. EXACT Sports provides you with insights into improving your chance of being seen and recruited by college coaches. It was one of the best decisions I made in my recruiting process.
Parent
The information shared throughout the camp was priceless. EXACT Sports and the coaches were so approachable and willing to share all and any knowledge to the athletes and the parents. (line break) Our son is entering 10th grade and we were not aware of any such camps. He attended a showcase with the HS JV team last summer, but they did not share any information. He attended a college sponsored team camp the week before the EXACT Camp and there were only 5 college coaches that attended that camp. We were so happy with the EXACT's structure and all the opportunities that they give the athletes and parents to ask questions. We will attend another camp before our son graduates HS. Thank you!
Player
I loved the style of training and playing at the camp. They were open to changes with certain age restrictions and skill differences (as I am one of the younger athletes). Also, I loved how we were able to meet each coach privately, as well as during training. Lastly, the elevator pitch practice was unique and beneficial as it prepares me for the future.

This was a wonderful opportunity to meet coaches and other players in a completely different format. There is a chance to show individual skills that may not be seen in a regular soccer tournament environment. The interaction with coaches is outstanding and I really feel that I was able to get exposure from EXACT that I would not have anywhere else. Thanks for a great session and options to see so many coaches. I can't wait to see where this opportunity leads me!
