From Buc Dome to Dean Dome: Christian Keeling ‘did it the right way’
Posted May 1, 2019
Christian Keeling was a junior at Laney High School in Augusta, Ga., when his late mother was diagnosed with cancer. But his mother warned the rest of the family: Don’t tell Christian. “The family kept it from me,” Keeling said. “She sacrificed her life to make sure I was kept on the right track. She didn’t want me distracted, or feel like I had to quit playing to stay home.”
