Kerry was running back on the 1968 Monongah High state football champs, with Brother (Nick Saban) the quarterback, and, after Brother moved on to Kent State University, Kerry helped Monongah win the 1969 state title. 

It was the only back-to-back state football championships for Monongah. 

The Lions won in 1952 and 1955 with Jim Feltz coaching and Earl Keener (the 1968 and 1969 head coach) as Jim's assistant and in 1973 with Jim's son, Jay Feltz, as the quarterback for the state champ Lions.
