PREP FOOTBALL: Cold Springs falls to Lexington in offensive shootout

Cold Springs delivered a terrific offensive performance on Friday night. Unfortunately for the Eagles, however, Lexington proved just a bit better. The No. 10 Blue and Gold fell short against the Golden Bears, 50-36, in the second round of the Class 2A playoffs. Lexington built a 28-10 lead before Cold Springs answered with 20 unanswered to surge ahead midway through the third quarter. The teams traded scores down the stretch before the Golden Bears ultimately sealed the win with a lengthy touchdown run late in the game. Ethan Day rushed for two touchdowns in the loss. Blake Phillips, Brandon Chasteen and Cooper Johnson, meanwhile, each had one rushing score. Cold Springs, which won its first playoff game since 1993 last week, ends its historic season at 10-2.
