Joe Kelly of the Lakeside Dragons had a big night in helping coach Bill Lipps’ squad to a 42-13 victory against visiting Chardon in a Premier Athletic Conference game Friday night at Lakeside Stadium.
The 5-foot-11, 185-pound senior began the scoring in the romp with a 70-yard dash for a touchdown.

On the defensive side of the football, he had 13 tackles, including one for a loss, and one of his hits forced a Hilltopper fumble.
For his efforts, he will sweatshirt, courtesy of John Ringer, owner, operator, bottle washer of Ringer Screen Print, located in North Kingsville.
