About the Founder

Mickey Cahoon founded d3 Admissions Consulting and Education with the mission to help student-athletes who want to play collegiate sports find opportunities. Mickey's goal is to provide resources for student-athletes to discover colleges where they can pursue their academic interests and play their sport at the varsity level. Mickey received a master's degree in Counseling from Boston University in 2007. Mickey has over 25 years of coaching experience, 17 at the collegiate level, where he served as Head Volleyball and Head Men's Tennis Coach at Clark University in Worcester, MA. During that time Mickey led both teams to their first ever appearances in a NEWMAC final and the Volleyball program's first ever NCAA tournament appearance. Having coached college athletics for 17 years and high school athletics for 10 years, Mickey has worked with thousands of students during their college admissions and recruiting process. Mickey was a former Division III college athlete, played beach volleyball at the men's professional level, and currently competes in Senior Pro Pickleball Tour events.
