POSTED 09/26/2008 - The Keystone JVcame to Union County on Thursday night with one big advantage -- about twice as many players. The Union County team might have been short on players, but the guys gave it all they had 'til the very last seconds of the game.

With his 290-pound bench and whopping 475 pound squat, can you say locomotive? More ...
