Keith's season came to an end in the first round of the playoffs when they fell to Abbeville by a score of 16-12. The Bears last playoff victory came during the 1995 season. They would love to break through this year with a post season win. Since 2010, Keith has gone a combined 45-42. Their 52.0% winning percentage ranks 24th in Class 1A over the past eight seasons.

The Bears will be under the direction of new head football coach Anthony Lumpkin as they enter the 2018 season. The Keith Bears will play in Class 1A region three during the 2018 season.
