Top Games In Week 8

District 4-4A

The Cooper Cougars are trying to go 2-0 in District 4-4A for the 2nd year in a row. The Cougars host San Angelo Lake View at Shotwell Stadium tonight. Cooper's "D" will get another good test from another spread offense, but they responded well in the district opener against Hereford. The defense allowed the 2nd best offense in the district in the end zone just 2 times last week. This week they face a mirror image of themselves. Lake View Head coach Sterling Gilbert is a former Cooper assistant under head coach Mike Spradlin, and he runs, for the most part, the same offense and the same defense.
