St. John's '14Often overlooked, Kieran McArdle is getting his due
Lightly recruited out of high school, Kieran McArdle seized his opportunity at St. John's by rewriting the school's record book. He was a three-time All-American and became to the first player in St. John's history to top 100 goals, 100 assists and 200 points.
He was the No. 5 overall pick in the 2014 MLL Draft and set league rookie records for goals (34) and points (49) in a season, earning rookie of the year honors with the launch. He went on to be a three-time MLL All-Star.
In the PLL, McArdle scored 25 points with the Atlas in the league's first season. He's since been playing with the Waterdogs and had his best year in the league in 2022, scoring 42 points while helping the Waterdogs win the league championship.
McArdle has also thrived in the NLL, joining the league in 2017, and led Albany with 40 assists this past season after previously playing with Toronto and New York.
