It’s no secret that the Keith Bears love to run the football, and they road a strong rushing attack to a 45-6 victory on the road in Hoover against Shades Mountain Christian.

Charles Johnson led the Bears (6-2, 4-2) with a staggering 470 yards and six touchdowns on only ten carries.

Johnson also had an interception on the defensive side of the ball for Keith.

The win clinched at least the fourth playoff spot in Class 1A region 4 for the Bears.

“We’re going to go head to head with Autaugaville on Friday night, and hopefully we can keep rolling and claim the third spot,” said Harry Crum, head coach of the Bears. “I’m proud of our guys and I think they did a really good job. We had a goal to be better than we were last year. With the things that we’re doing, I think we’re better than we were last year.”

The Bears will be at home next Friday against Autaugaville.
