College Park Head Coach Richard Carson has said all season that his football team would be fighting for a playoff spot the last week of the season, and his foresight turned out to be accurate. His team took care of business, coming from behind tonight to upend the Conroe Tigers, 27-24, at Woodforest Stadium. With a Kingwood loss tomorrow to The Woodlands, the Cavaliers will be playoff bound.

“Our kids did what they’ve done all year,” said Carson. “They were resilient, they fought till the end….there was no magic bean, no magic plays, it was just coming out and executing. Our kids did a great job of not quitting. I’m so proud of them I can’t put it into words.”
