The varsity football clinched the last playoff spot in district 3-4 A with a 21-7 victory over the Plainview Bulldogs last Friday night.
The first points of the game were scored by junior Graeson Cook with a 39-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Travis Cosby. A good PAT by senior Austin Weaver made the Eagles up 7-0 with 1:38 left in the first quarter.
The Bulldogs tied the game at 7-7 with 54 seconds remaining in the half after Canyon’s four penalties, including three facemasks, helped propel Plainview down the field.
Canyon was ahead 14-7 by the end of the third quarter after a three-yard run by Cosby. They scored again with 9:57 left in the game with a catch by sophomore Blake Weaver, coming to the final score of 21-7.
The Eagles face Lake Dallas Saturday at Wichita Falls Memorial Stadium. A final game time is yet to be determined.
