Early Life
Thompson grew up on Staple Rd., a tiny dirt road in the middle of dreary Twin Lake, Michigan. From an early age, it was obvious that Thompson was one day going to be the master of sacks because of his crazy obsession with balls of all varieties and other round things. He attended Twin Lake Elementary and subsequently dominated competition in every sport except for basketball, where his lack of coordination did not serve him well.

Growing Up
Thompson quickly became a bully in elementary school, beating up on kids like Sean and Andrew Johnson, who were scrubby punks that would one day end up in jail. It could be said that Thompson was on his way to becoming a super-hero. He continued in his late elementary/early middle school years to dominate the football field. However, he began forming habits. He would fall after catching the football, unable to capitalize on his blazing speed, and instead would take the safe route and prevent the defense from stripping the ball from him.

High School
It was in High School, however, where Thompson would find his niche. He would start lifting heavy weights and getting very, very strong. As a matter of fact, a certain girl took notice. Keith would end up wasting almost two years of his life with this wonderful girl, who until recently had a high-paying job at Hooters. Dumb Sackmaster. Keith would continue to work his way towards grand sackmasterism when his French teacher Mrs. Schramski would note that "Gauthier a un grand sac". Gauthier was the sackmaster's "French name". He liked this statement, and would laugh out loud at it.

Reeths-Puffer Rockets (RP Power!)
As he had his whole life, Keith's obsession with sacks truly showed on the football field. Playing tight end, even though he had the worst yards after contact in history, he was quickly able to become a true Touchdown Boy, which would get him in with all the ladies. Even Miranda Maxey, who Keith always knew liked him because she said something to him one time while Keith was dating Lauren Chalker in 8th grade. Keith was definitely a Ladies' Man.

The Battle of Adrian
It was a blustery, but sunny day in Adrian, Michigan on October 20, 2007. The Hope College football team had meandered along to a 3-3 record, not really thanks to the help of Thompson, but they were glad he had been on the team to this point. However, this day had a different feel. And it came to pass during the battle of Adrian that Sackmaster Thompson was truly born. In the middle of the third quarter, during one of the most boring football games in history, God shined his light down upon Adrian's stadium (name please?) as Thompson found a seam for the first time in his career and laid a jarring hit on the quarterback, knocking the ball loose and allowing his team to recover the fumble. Initially, fans didn't realize it was Thompson's first sack because he had claimed a half-sack earlier in the season vs. Central, Iowa (not Central Iowa). However, in a blatant attempt to undermine Thompson's contribution to the team, the half-sack was never recorded, postponing the birth of Sackmaster Thompson until October 20, 2007.

Thanks to Thompson, the Flying Dutchmen came out victorious 24-14, and kept Hope College atop the MIAA standings with a 4-0 record.
