PREP FOOTBALL: Vinemont picks up 30-6 victory over Cold Springs

Published 10:39 pm Friday, October 29, 2021

Vinemont's Austin Boudreaux (15), Ian McCuiston (42) and Toby Hill (8) surround Cold Springs' Seth Williams.

Colby Miller registered three touchdowns, Kayden Henderson pitched in another, and Vinemont picked up a 30-6 home victory against Cold Springs on Friday night.

The Eagles have now won five of their past seven games following an 0-3 start.

“I feel like we’re playing better football,” Vinemont coach Stephen Robinson said. “We were a little sloppy on our opening drive, but I think the weather had something to do with that. We did what we felt like we should do. I told our seniors … I thanked them for their hard work over the past four years. For those guys to be in the playoffs two years in a row — it says a lot for them and the hard work they’ve put into this program.”

Miller had a pair of scores (48 and 23 yards) in the first quarter and another (79 yards) in the second to go along with a 2-point conversion.

Henderson’s touchdown (22 yards) came in the opening period as well. He and Toby Hill also converted 2-point attempts to help Vinemont seize a 30-0 halftime advantage.

Miller finished with 153 yards on just eight carries. Henderson and Hill each rushed for 42 yards.

Seth Williams, meanwhile, scored the lone touchdown for Cold Springs (0-10) in the fourth quarter.

Vinemont (5-5) will travel to Lauderdale County next Friday night for a first-round playoff game.

“It was huge for us to make the playoffs, especially with the way we started the season,” Robinson said. “It took us a while to get rolling, but I feel like we’re meshing pretty well right now. Lauderdale County is a great team — 9-1, the top seed. We’re glad that we have an opportunity to prepare for them and go give them everything we’ve got next week.”
