Jonathan Keys had a junior year to remember for the LaGrange football team.
Despite a new quarterback, a plethora of other talented running backs on the teams and other changes on offense, Keys was able to build on a breakout sophomore campaign with an even stronger junior season. He finished with over 500 yards on the ground and 7 total touchdowns, which was tied for second on the team
Keys is a versatile back who is both shifty in the open field and can muscle his way through tackles.
He was named to the Region 4-4A All-Region second team — the only Granger running back to do so. Big things will be expected of Keys next season as he forms a talented trio of Granger running backs alongside Malachi Fannin-Render and Caydin Thomas.
