Professional
On January 26, 2006, the Los Angeles Galaxy selected McEachron in the first round (twelfth overall) of the 2006 MLS Supplemental Draft. At some point in 2006, he signed with the Richmond Kickers, and earned a starting position three games into the season. McEachron spent three seasons with the Kickers, solidifying the defense and helping the Kickers win the USL Championship in 2006 and reach the USL Championship in 2007, where they lost in penalties. McEachron earned All-League honors in his second and third seasons, including making the USL Team of the Week twice. He also spent time with the D.C. United and Chicago Fire reserves on loan from the Kickers reserves in 2006, 2007, and 2008. It appears he may have spent part of the 2008 season with the Los Angeles Galaxy because he did not sign with the Kickers until June 5, 2008. On August 22, 2008, he played on loan with the Chicago Fire in Chicago's exhibition match with C.D. Veracruz
