There's a big move in store for Keith Goganious - from snow country to sun country.
Goganious, a hometown guy, played football for the Buffalo Bills for three years. This season the linebacker is moving on to play for the new Jacksonville Jaguars in Florida. ``I think it's going to be nice to be in the warm weather,'' said the former Green Run High School football player and Huntington Woods resident.
No matter where he plays though, home base will always be Virginia Beach. It's where he comes to recharge - spending the off season, relaxing, working out at the gym to get ready for more football and as a movie buff, spending a lot of time in front of the silver screen.
