Post Falls 13, Coeur d’Alene 7

The Post Falls football team kept its faint state playoff hopes alive with a 13-7 win over Coeur d’Alene in a 5A Inland Empire League game Thursday. Now Post Falls and Coeur d’Alene will root for Lake City to capture the conference championship tonight at Lewiston . An LC win would put Post Falls, Coeur d’Alene and Lewiston in a three-way tie for second, necessitating a Kansas Tiebreaker on Monday to decide the second playoff berth. Lewiston can secure the league title and render a tiebreaker moot with a win. LC is in the playoffs win or lose. “We’re still alive,” Post Falls coach Jeff Hinz bellowed after his Trojans (6-3 overall, 1-2 league) stymied Coeur d’Alene (6-3, 1-2) defensively. “Our kids played great defense”/ Greg Lee , Sportslink.
