NORMAL, Ill. – Former Illinois State standout Jaelyn Keene (2014-17) announced on Monday that she has signed a professional contract to play volleyball with the ATSC Kelag Wildcats in Klagenfurt, Austria.
Keene, who graduated with her bachelor's degree in accounting in May 2018, exhausted her indoor volleyball eligibility and used her fifth and final year to play a sport not sponsored by Illinois State – beach volleyball – at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She recently completed her master's degree in accounting at UAB.
"This opportunity is something I have been dreaming about since I was a little girl," Keene shared.
