McKee helped lead the Falcons to the 2014 ECAC championship title, which prior to the 2015 season, was the Falcons' most successful season in program history. En route to their conference title, the Falcons knocked off No. 11/14 Fairfield twice. The record-breaking season also marked the Falcons' first win in the NCAA tournament, defeating Richmond, 13-5, in the play-in game.
McKee is second in the Falcon all-time record books with 97 career goals. He is third in program history in goals per game, averaging 1.76 in 55 games played and he has the fourth most career points in program history with 121.
