Bulldogs Cruise By Cougars 69-36
The Loraine Bulldogs ran their season record to 2-0 with a 69-36 thumping of the Kondike Cougars in action played last Friday night at Johnson Field in Loraine.
The Bulldogs got off to a slow start, but made up lost time once they got going.
Senior Zach Gibson scored the first Bulldog touchdown with 1:49 left to go in the first quarter before the flood gates opened in the second quarter when the Bulldogs scored 30 points while allowing 12 to Klondike.
Just barely into the second half, Kenny Esquivel returned a Cougar punt 19 yards for a touchdown.
Stefan Limones, stepping in for the ailing Derek Martinez, led all rushers with 198 yards on 84 carries. Martinez, in a limited role, ran for 84 yards on four carries while Gibson ran the ball seven carries for 71 points.
Miguel Acevedo led the team in tackles with 15 while Martinez and Kenny Esquivel added 10 each.
The Bulldogs will take on the Water Valley Wildcats this Friday night in Water Valley.
