With just under four minutes left to play, Wrook Brown took a hand off on third down and 14 at the China Spring 37 and went outside his left tackle for a 27 yard jaunt to set up the Eagles for a first and goal.
Ultimately, it was the nail in the coffin of the 4A Div. 2 #6 team in state. The Eagles led by just seven points with four minutes to play, not enough with a team as explosive as China Spring. But with a first down at the Cougars’ 10 yard line, Alan Haire’s Eagles offense continued its grind.
Caden Strickland got five yards, followed by a two-yard dive by quarterback Hutton Haire. A facemask call moved it to the Cougar 1 yard line and a first down. Next play, Noah Mescher dove in for the touchdown with 2:40 left in the game. Brown’s kick gave the Eagles a comfortable 28-14 lead. Salado would hold on to win the game by that margin to improve to 7-1 on the year and 3-0 in District play, sitting alone at the top of District.

Village of Salado aldermen will discuss at their 6:30 Oct. 15 meeting a proposed pilot program for the installation of five fixed license plate reader cameras to be placed at key entry and exit points.
The cameras would provide officers with data on vehicles that can be useful when investigating criminal activity that may occur in the Village, according to the agenda packet on the proposal.
The proposed system can identify a vehicle’s license plate, along with the vehicle’s make, type and color and the time the vehicle passed in front of the camera.

The Village of Salado will conduct a public hearing at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 15 regarding the development of an all-abilities playground adjacent to the pavilion at Pace Park. The all abilities playground would replace the current playground in the Park.
The Village is seeking a grant from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to help fund develpment of the new playground. Because a significant part of Pace Park is in the flood plain, TPWD requires a public hearing on the project. None of the proposed playground would be constructed in flood plain.
