COLD SPRING — Leading 14-0 in the fourth quarter, the No. 2-seeded Brainerd Warriors survived past the No. 3-seeded and defending state champion Spring Lake Park Panthers 14-13 in the Class 5A State Quarterfinals Saturday, Nov. 14, at Rocori High School. SLP scored with 7:01 left on a Jake Wagner 9-yard touchdown pass from Nolan Roach to cut Brainerd’s lead to 14-7. After a Brainerd punt, Roach found Kaden Konkler for a 13-yard touchdown pass on fourth and 11 to make the score 14-13. The Panthers elected to try and take the lead with a two-point conversion. Roach dropped back and surveyed his options. He tucked the ball to run and reached for the goal line. He was denied by Warrior linebackers. With 2:04 left and no timeouts, the Panthers needed to recover an onside kick. SLP did at Brainerd’s 46, needing a field goal to win. On second and 10, Brainerd defensive end Jacob English pressured Roach, who threw it away.

Between Waco And Big Spring State Park Is Texas' Lakeside Destination With Scenic Camping Spots And Outdoor Fun - Islands

Outdoor Adventure Camping Texas has roughly 370 miles of Gulf coastline with busy beaches and rolling waves, but there's just something about a day on a lake that offers a different vibe. Lake life is a little more laid-back, allowing you to explore quiet coves, drop a line, take a swim, and unwind near the shoreline—all without the extra crowds. You can experience this and more at Flat Rock Park & Campground in Brownwood, Texas. If you're seeking a peaceful spot to gather in the afternoons and then spend evenings watching picturesque sunsets, this lakeside gem is the place for you. It's a sweet reminder that the best getaways are never too far away. Nestled in the heart of Texas between Waco and Big Spring, Flat Rock Park & Campground sits on the south side of Lake Brownwood in Brown County. The 6,814-acre lake was formed in 1933 by the damming of Pecan Bayou and Jim Ned Creek after a major flood impacted the area decades earlier.
