McCarthy Sports, Inc. has announced a consulting agreement with Northwood University (FL), St. Thomas University (FL) and Southeastern University (FL) that will run from November 1, 2006 – January 31, 2007. "McCarthy Sports, Inc. will analyze each institution's future as possible NCAA members, as well as possible conference affiliation options."

Currently, Northwood University (FL) is a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and is in the first year of the exploratory process for National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II membership. St. Thomas (FL) is also a member of the NAIA and has now entered the second year of the exploratory process for NCAA Division II membership. Southeastern (FL) is a member of National Collegiate Christian Athletic Association and is exploring future options.

“McCarthy Sports, Inc. is proud to work with these fine universities,” said John McCarthy, President of McCarthy Sports, Inc. “This is an exciting time – and an important time – for Northwood, St. Thomas and Southeastern. We are looking forward to working on their behalf.”

“After spending a good amount of time getting to know the Athletic Directors at each of these schools,” continues McCarthy, “I have seen a tremendous commitment and passion for student-athletes and for their respective universities. All three of these schools are moving in a positive and exciting direction, and we at McCarthy Sports, Inc. are excited to help do the research, give guidance and help create the road map for the future.”

McCarthy Sports Consulting handles the variety of issues within the sports field, including issues surrounding college/university athletic departments, conference offices and national association matters. We focus primarily on research, strategic planning and marketing within a
college/university setting, as well as with conference offices. In addition, we also focus on athletic event planning, research, organization and marketing.

McCarthy Sports will be available to assist with searches for Commissioners, Athletic Directors and Basketball Coaches.
