Crater Comets Football 13-20 Churchill

Churchill handed Crater a 20-13 defeat in league football Friday night at Crater High School in Central Point, Oregon, handing the Comets their fourth loss of the season. Crater entered the game at 2-3 overall and needing a win to maintain footing in the conference standings. The Comets kept it competitive, closing to within striking distance, but Churchill held firm down the stretch to secure the seven-point victory. With the loss, Crater falls to 2-4 overall and 2-2 in conference play, leaving the Comets on the bubble as the second half of the regular season takes shape. The offense showed some life, but the defense could not find the stops needed in key moments. Crater will look to regroup during the week and return to action with renewed urgency. A bounce-back performance will be critical if the Comets hope to finish the regular season strong and keep their postseason options alive.
