Brian O'Keefe played lacrosse for FDU from 1985 to 1988. He garnered First Team All-Middle Atlantic Conference honors in 1986 and made Second Team in 1988. His 251 career points rank second all-time at FDU. O'Keefe put up a school-record 16 points against Widener in 1986. His nine goals in that same game is also a single-game school record. His 108 points in 1986 is an FDU record, and his 64 goals that year also mark a school best. After playing three years on offense, O'Keefe took over at goalie for his senior year and was as spectacular defending the cage as he was attacking it. He set FDU's record for most saves by a goalkeeper in a game when he made 45 against Rutgers in 1987. After graduating from FDU, O'Keefe played professional lacrosse for the New York Saints of the National Lacrosse League from 1994 to 1998. He is a 2000 inductee of the Fairleigh Dickinson University Hall of Fame and is a member of the MAC All-Century Team.
