The Bulldogs scored first but that was their only score as penalties, turnovers, missed blocks, and missed tackles plagued them the rest of the night. Things started off promising when the Bulldogs on their second possession scored from 15 yards out on 4th and 2, but that was to be their only visit into the end zone. The Bulldogs hope to bounce back next week against Ponder.
