Joey McKenna Transferring To Ohio State
Former Stanford All-American Joey McKenna has found his new home.
The summer's second biggest saga is officially over. NCAA All-American Joey McKenna is taking his talents to Columbus and will be a Buckeye. McKenna chose Ohio State over Lehigh and Penn State.

McKenna, who was third at the NCAA tournament in 2016, gives the Buckeyes options at 141 and 149 as Ke-Shawn Hayes will return this year after suffering a season ending injury last year. This means returning All-American Micah Jordan will likely move up to 157lbs.
With the recent news of Nick Suriano possibly transferring out of Penn State, this pickup makes the Buckeyes instant national title contenders as they return six All-Americans and also add Pitt transfer Te'Shan Campbell who went 2-2 a year ago at the NCAA Tournament.
