Chapman University

Dillon Keefe joined the Chapman coaching staff in the spring of 2023 - just a year and a half removed from his playing career. Keefe works primarily with the outside linebackers.

Keefe was a two-time All-American as an outside linebacker at Chapman. He garnered two SCIAC Defensive Athlete of the Year Awards, two All-Region nods and began his career as the SCIAC Newcomer of the Year in 2017. Keefe led the Panthers to two SCIAC Championships in his four seasons at Chapman.

As a junior, Keefe led the Panthers to their first-ever NCAA Tournament win in triple overtime. In the game, Keefe returned a fumble for a touchdown, ran for a touchdown and threw a touchdown pass.
