Anderson reflects upon breaking team scoring record

Friday night was set up to be a big one for Glencoe-Silver Lake’s Keaton Anderson, and it sure was. 
Anderson, a guard for the Panthers boys’ basketball team, entered that evening’s Wright County Conference West battle against Mound Westonka needing just seven points to etch his name into the record book as the team’s all-time leading scorer.

It was easily the biggest week of the season so far for the Glencoe-Silver Lake boys’ basketball team.

Then there was the topic of Keaton Anderson’s historic achievement.

Deputy Erick Boder, a 10-year veteran, was patrolling in Carver and traveling northbound on CSAH 11, just south of Fourth Street, when a southbound vehicle driven by Jason Horowitz, 46, of Carver, crossed the center line and collided head on with the squad car.

More about the accident will be published in the Jan. 28 print edition of The Chronicle.
