HS Football Rewind: Keenan wins playoff opener. Dreher ends playoff drought

The Keenan Raiders are moving on in the playoffs. Hunter O’Neal ran for two touchdowns and Dante Howse had a key TD pass in the fourth quarter to help the Raiders past Newberry, 30-21 in the Class 2A playoffs on Friday. Keenan will host St. Joseph’s in the second round next week. It is Keenan’s third playoff win under coach Jarrett Nealy, who led the Raiders (8-3) to the third round in his first year in 2024. The Raiders were 3-8 last year but now have two eight-win seasons in the past three years. Friday’s matchup was the second meeting of the season between the two teams. Keenan won, 28-16, on Oct. 16. “Really hard to beat a team twice, especially a good team,” Neely said. “Newberry was young this year. But I knew they would come in and battle. We challenged our guys all week, and I think we came out and did what we are supposed to do.” The game had plenty of twists and turns in the second half. Keenan led 24-14 going to the fourth quarter, but Newberry blocked a punt and took over at the Raiders’ 2-yard line. Keenan’s Jamauri Johnson picked off Sincere Glymph
