Football returned to Shotwell Stadium and many corner of the Big Country on Thursday night as the 2022 season began with a wonderfully temperate night.A kickoff temperature of 90 degrees steadily dropped as the August sun slipped away.At Abilene's main stadium, the Cooper Cougars met Keller in a match filled with ups and downs. Fans were treated to a football contest illuminated by new field lights, making the action at Shotwell brighter and more cost efficient thanks to LED technology.Cooper couldn't hold a halftime lead and lost to Keller.
