Army's Kevin McKague drafted by Braves

S/Sgt. Michael "Mike" Anthony Lacche (La'KAY), United States Army Welterweight Base Boxing Champion, Fort Kamehameha, Hawaii, 1942.
Army Black Knights stand out Kevin McKague was drafted by the Atlanta Braves in the 23rd round of the 2012 MLB First-Year Players Draft. McKague helped Army win the Patriot League title and advance to the 2012 NCAA Baseball Playoffs.

McKague completed his Army career as the school's all-time leader in multiple categories including games played, hits, doubles, and yes, saves. Talk about a versatile player.

No surprise McKague was a semi-finalist for the John Olerud Two-Way Player of the Year Award.
