The freshman football team of Coffee County traveled to Sparta on Monday night for a battle with White County.  After losing to the JV/Freshman combined team last week, the Raiders were looking for some revenge.  The Red Raiders ended up falling to the Warriors 38 to 37 in a game that saw 8 lead changes.

Trailing 38 to 31, Coffee County scored with 95 seconds remaining in the game.  The Red Raiders came up short on the 2 point conversion as they went for the win.  Tristan Galey finished the night with 3 rushing touchdowns including one from 70 yards out.  Nate Luttrell threw a pair of touchdown passes as Elijah Clemons and Ian Weldon each had a touchdown reception.

The Red Raiders hit the road again next Monday night as they travel to McMinnville for a battle with Warren County as part of a JV/freshman doubleheader.  The JV teams will play at 5 PM with the freshman game scheduled for 7 PM.
