April 30, 2024

Campbell Hall High football coach Dennis Keyes announced the school's decision to discontinue the football program, a move that has left him disappointed.

Keyes, who has led the team for the past decade, stated that he was informed of the school's decision on Tuesday. He expressed his sadness at the loss of the program, which has had a successful history under his leadership.

Despite posting a 1-8 record during the past season, Campbell Hall football has enjoyed notable achievements in previous years. Under Keyes, the team experienced significant growth and development, culminating in a 5-0 start this season.

Keyes attributed the team's recent success to the development of players and a strong sense of community within the program. However, in a disappointing turn of events, their playoff hopes were dashed by a loss to Santa Barbara High School, ending their streak of playoff wins since 2005.

The school has not disclosed the reasons behind the decision to discontinue the football program. The news has come as a surprise to many, including Keyes, who expressed his hope that the school would reconsider its decision.
