PEACH VALLEY, Colorado — Win or lose, Coal Ridge will wrap its most successful football campaign in the school’s four-year history tonight.
Closing out with a win won’t be easy, though, as the Titans face visiting Aspen, which is gunning for a Class 2A wild-card playoff berth.
The Skiers improved to 7-2 overall with a 49-6 thumping of Gunnison last week, while Coal Ridge lost a heartbreaker to visiting Roaring Fork, 27-20.
However tonight’s game plays out, the Titans have to be somewhat satisfied with the progress they made in 2008. After entering the season with just one varsity win to their name, they’ll close it out by adding no fewer than four to the program’s all-time win column.
