THINGS ARE KEATON UP IN UNITED

HANOVERTON, OH- The youth movement is upon Eagle Nation, and there’s a Junior leading the charge for United this year.  The only returning letterman on an outstanding team, Keaton Baker has big shoes to fill when it comes to adding to the foundation of a stellar program in Hanoverton this year.  A program that seemingly is always in the thick of things in conference play now looks to the future in 2020.

Coach Kadvan must lean on his positive approach that his team appreciates and drives off.  However, it’s players like Baker that must provide a glimpse of the tradition and heritage with some new-school flashes of what could be in the years to come for the Blue and Gold.
