“I played for Keating at Pottsville and he was my neighbor and I have been very close to him for a long time,” said McGeoy. “He was my coach for three years playing varsity football.”

McGeoy was an All-League linebacker at Lehigh University from 2000-03. He started three years there at linebacker.
