COLDSPRING — The Trojans improved their district record with a 20-19 win over Diboll on Friday.
Coldspring drew first blood by scoring first against the Diboll Lumberjacks; it did not take long, however, for the Jacks to find the end zone.
The score remained knotted at 6 until late in the second quarter, and with 27 seconds left on the clock that the Jacks posted another score.
The Trojans did not show aggression until their quarterback received a late hit out of bounds on the home side of the field, sending him out of the game. Hunter Mullins took over at quarterback, and the game momentum changed drastically.
