Colton Vikings Football 42-34 Willamina

A high-scoring road battle ended in Colton's favor Friday night, as the Colton football team from Colton, Oregon defeated Willamina 42-34 in a Tri-River Conference (2A) league contest played at Willamina. The Colts had to grind through a persistent Willamina squad that kept pace much of the night, making this eight-point margin feel every bit as hard-earned as it looks on paper. Neither defense could fully contain the offenses, and the scoreboard reflected that from start to finish. Colton's ability to pull ahead and hold on late proved to be the difference in a game that could have gone either way. With the victory, the Colts move to 4-1 overall and 2-1 in conference play, keeping themselves firmly in the mix for a strong league finish. Colton will look to build on this momentum next week as the back half of the regular season begins to take shape.
