Eagle 25, Coeur d’Alene 21

Three times Coeur d’Alene High took the lead in its State 5A semifinal football game. Once in the second quarter, again in the third and once more late in the fourth quarter. Each time, the Eagle Mustangs responded with a touchdown drive. The last, fueled by Dillon Lukehart’s 46-yard run on a broken play, helped the Mustangs to a hard-fought 25-21 victory Friday night at snowy Viking Field. “The only disappointing thing is to lose it on a fumbled snap, but it was a great battle,” said head coach Shawn Amos, whose Vikings finished 7-4. Eagle (10-1) will play Capital (11-0) for the state championship Friday at Bronco Stadium in Boise/Jim Meehan, Sportslink. More here.
