Ferris State University is planning to send to the hardwood what it hopes will be 
a competitive men's basketball team that might contend for a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship. To do so, however, the Bulldogs will need a big season from its big man inside: 6-foot-6 Grand Rapids native Justin Keenan, a junior center. And, Keenan has opened the eyes of some of the experts who cover Division II basketball as he was named a preseason honorable mention All-American by The Sporting News.
