NEW MADISON - Going on the road in the playoffs and winning is supposed to be hard. Coldwater is making it look easy after picking up over 500 total yards in a 48-29 win against Tri-Village to continue its postseason run.
The win puts the Cavaliers in the Division VI Regional Final, where they will take on an Anna team fresh off a 28-8 win over Springfield Northeastern. It will be a rematch of last year's Regional Final, where Coldwater ran away victorious en route to a state title. [More]
