Players

The 23-year-old Keller was born and raised in Carmel and attended Indianapolis’ Brebeuf Jesuit Prep School, where he played for three years alongside his new Indy Eleven teammate goalkeeper Jon Dawson.  Keller would go on play at the University of Louisville, going from a redshirt year in 2010 to being named the captain of the Cardinals for his senior season last fall.  Keller’s standout play with Louisville caught the eyes of defending Major League Soccer champion LA Galaxy, who selected him in the third round (62^nd overall) of this January’s MLS SuperDraft.

During his five years with the Louisville program, Keller would go from a redshirt walk-on to a senior captain, scoring six goals and adding four assists across his 74 appearances from 2011-14.  During his senior season last fall, Keller started all 22 games and scored three goals – all game-winners – for the Cardinals en route to an 11-8-3 record in their debut season in the Atlantic Coast Conference and a fourth straight appearance in the NCAA College Cup postseason tournament.

While at Brebeuf, Keller earned IHSAA All-State honors following his junior and senior seasons and was also a member of the 2009 Indiana Olympic Development Program (ODP) squad that won U.S. Soccer’s 2009 ODP National Championship. Keller played club soccer with Indiana United, where he guided his teams to four straight Indiana Soccer Association State Cup championships.
