UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Penn State men's lacrosse senior Ryan Keenan was selected at the 54th overall pick by the reigning MLL champions Ohio Machine in Wednesday night's Major League Lacrosse draft.
"Being drafted is pretty awesome," Keenan said of being named in the draft. "It's an honor to represent Penn State Lacrosse at the next level and as the years go on you will see a lot more names on this team get drafted. Our team has so much talent and it's an honor to play with these guys every day and I could not have gotten drafted without any of them."
Keenan, a captain for the Nittany Lions, has scored 17 goals out of the midfield and has added eight assists, 20 ground balls, and two caused turnovers.
Kennan and the Nittany Lions return to action on Sunday evening as they take on No. 10 Rutgers at 7 p.m. in Piscataway, New Jersey.
