NLL Career
McGlone was drafted with the 3rd pick of the 4th round on the 2006 NLL Entry Draft by the Chicago Shamrox. He was awarded Rookie of the Week honours in week 2 of the 2007 season for leading the Shamrox to their first franchise victory. After the season, McGlone was named to the All-Rookie team.
On March 24, 2007, McGlone (who attended Ridley High School) played in front of his hometown crowd versus the Philadelphia Wings. In honor of high school teammate, Nick Colleluori, who died from non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in November 2006, McGlone donated his game salary to the HEADstrong Foundation for Cancer Research. Colleluori, who attended Hofstra University, was also honored by Blake Miller of the New York Titans earlier in the season. McGlone scored three goals and recorded one assist in the contest.
Shortly before the 2009 season began, the Shamrox suspended operations, and a dispersal draft was held. McGlone was selected third overall by the Toronto Rock. After one season with the Rock, McGlone was traded to the Philadelphia Wings along with Kevin Huntley for Peter Jacobs.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
