Keystone High senior Don Griswold, a 205 pound running back, carried 47 times for 206 yards and three touchdowns in last week's win over Oberlin, a county record potential. He also anchors on defense with 31 solo tackles and 29 assists, and has four interceptions. West faces him again as a decoy strategy looms.
