ATHENS, TX -- Kilgore College trailed by as many as 22 points in the second half, but cut the lead to six points late in the game with help from four quick technical fouls called on the Trinity Valley bench, resulting in the ejections of both the head coach and an assistant coach for the Cardinals.
