It’s easy to forget as the years go by and Steve Pikiell continues to elevate Rutgers basketball but during the first two seasons in the Big Ten, the Scarlet Knights were just 3-33 under former head coach Eddie Jordan. Things got a little better during Pikiell’s first two seasons, as RU went 6-30 in Big Ten regular season play but this program was still buried in the basement. While they upset 11 seed Ohio State as the 14 seed in the first round of the 2017 Big Ten Tournament, upstart Northwestern blew them out of the gate the following day on its way to a first and only NCAA Tournament appearance.
Four Penn State men’s lacrosse players were named to Inside Lacrosse’s preseason All-American team Tuesday night, including Mac O’Keefe, Nick Cardile, Gerard Arceri, and Jack Kelly.
Attackman Mac O’Keefe was named a preseason second-team All-American. The graduate student has been awarded three All-American honors over his Penn State career, as he earned second-team in 2020 and 2019 and an honorable mention in 2018.
O’Keefe holds the top two goal-scoring seasons in program history, with 78 as a junior and 51 as a freshman. His 78 goals during his junior season are a Big Ten record. O’Keefe ranks seventh in NCAA history with 192 goals.
