Final Story
Keynon Phillips, sophomore starts varsity football
Reporting- Jack Bernstein
Keynon Phillips turned 15 a few months ago just like most sophomores at Eastview High School in Apple Valley Minnesota. But he is not your average 15 year old. Believe it or not, Keynon is starting and thriving on one of the the best varsity football teams in the state of Minnesota.
I tracked down a few of Keynon’s friends and teammates to learn more about this special athlete and person.
"He is big, fast and strong. Keynon is the total package." Said long time friend and teammate Ryan Gavrilescu the sophomore quarterback. This was the thing I heard most often from players and coaches. Keynon is a fantastic athlete but he wasn’t just born like that.
“I have played with Keynon before and he is as hard of a worker as you will ever find. He consistently brings his best to practice day after day." Was a statement made by sophomore tight end Ben Oberfeld. The 6”6 standout also told me that even in the offseason Keynon is constantly running and lifting to make himself the best athlete he can be.
Keynon caught his first touchdown this week against Kennedy! I guess all that hard work really does pay off.
