FRANKLIN COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) — Funny, loving, resilient, and uplifting are just a few words that KeAaron Jones' teammates used to describe him.
The Franklin County high school sophomore was on his way to playing varsity boys volleyball this season, but a cancerous tumor growing along his spine has slowed him down.
Using one of the things he loves most, his volleyball coach and teammates decided to host a tournament with all proceeds going towards Jones and his family.
