A Season-Best Effort from Sean Keegan Leads St. Charles East over Batavia
Sadly, Sean Keegan posting his best game of the season wasn't enough to lead St. Charles East over Batavia on Friday. Keegan rushed for 71 yards and a touchdown. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 72-yard run.
St. Charles East has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four games, which put a noticeable dent in their 2-5 record this season. Keegan and St. Charles East will face off against Geneva at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
