This week has our Varsity Football Team hosting the Ballenas Whalers in the tenth annual Border Battle Football Game! Kick-Off is Saturday @ 0931 AM in "The Cage". This game is for all the post-season marbles with the winner virutually assured of a playoff berth and the loser needing to finish victorious and get help.

The early start is due to the BCFC game being played later in the afternoon with referees being at a premium.

Both teams will be closely matched physically and we are expecting quite the game.

Ray Kocher Classic Sat. 10 October



Week Five has our Varsity Dawgs playing at the NDSS Islander Varsity at 10 AM in the 9th Annual Ray Kocher Classic football game. Barsby has dominated the series on the scoreboard but has had several close calls for sure and one loss over the past 8 years. It is important to note that the records of both teams headed into this contest really mean nothing as it is a big time rivalry game and everyone is going to be "playing out of their skin" for local bragging rights. A big turnout of parents and alumni is also expected for this contest!
