Mike O’Keeffe (U23 New Zealand National Team & Fairfield) – O’Keeffe is a 6-1 goalkeeper, hailing from Christchurch, New Zealand, who has established himself as the Fairfield number 1 going into his senior year. He was the MAAC Defensive Player of the Year in 2011. O’Keeffe gained international experience as a member of the New Zealand Under-15 and Under-17 squads. He also played for New Zealand’s Under-17 World Cup team, and served his teammates as a captain during his stay with the team. Number one for the New Zealand Olympic side, London, 2012 (three appearances).
Coach Tim -“Mike is a proven and established GK at both the collegiate and international level with New Zealand. He excels in all areas from that position- shot stopping, distribution, communication, and dealing with service. He is hoping to use this final season post graduation at the PDL level to position himself with some opportunities to play at the next level.”
