In the big rivalry game of Chester County versus Lexington that was also a huge regional game, the Chester County Eagles fell short and lost 17-14 to the Tigers after the tigers scored their field goal with little time remaining.
“I’m very proud of our team. We’re growing. What I saw tonight is that this hurts. Our guys are being tired of getting close and that’s a stepping stone. When a team gets hungrry and gets tired of being close you got a shot. So that’s what I’m looking for,” said Head Coach Dewond Johnson.
The Eagles were down, but were able to tie it at 14. Since they did, Johnson said that he could not be upset because they gave themselves a shot.
“I can’t complain. I cannot complain. Chester County came out big and made a lot of noise. We can change the atmosphere, and I think we’re on our way to doing it.”
Now with two games left in the season, the Eagles sit at 50% with a 4-4 record.
Tonight, Thursday, October 20, the Eagles have Thursday night Football against Bolivar with faith that they will get a “W.”
