Coach Becker on McKeaney: "We hope Ryan will continue to develop this season. Last year he wasn’t quite ready physically, but as a sophomore now I expect him to push our other post players and make a big jump. He is a skilled post player who needs to continue to get stronger and compete every day in practice."
