THORSBY – The Keith Bears payed a visit to Thorsby Friday night, Oct. 21 to take on the Rebels in a Class 2A Region 4 matchup.

Thorsby came into the game (1-7, 1-4) while the Bears came in at (4-4, 4-2).

While neither team had much to play for other than Keith’s seeding in the playoffs, both teams wanted to gain some confidence heading toward the playoffs or next season.

The Bears would eventually run away with this one to win by a final score of 34-12, which would sure up the number three seed in Region 4, behind two seed Verbena and one seed Aliceville.

Thorsby has now lost seven straight games since their win against Francis Marion back on Sept. 2, and things won’t get much easier next week when the Rebels have to travel to Class 1A Region 3 Isabella who is 8-1 on the year.

A win would definitely put this young team over the top heading into next season.
