Big Day For Dawg D!

Dawg D Closes In For Another White-Out!

Defense was stellar again on Friday as we held a Milne team that had scored 60 plus points the week prior to zero on the scoreboard.  Big kudos however to the Wolverines who fought hard to the end and who were great sportsmen!  Without them, we never would have had a game.

The coaching staff was pleased with the total team effort across the roster and believes that we took another step forward towards building a better squad.  The pre-season is now over and we are really going to be getting down to business at practice and on the playing field.  There will be no free lunches and everyone is going to have to compete mentally and physically.  Preparation, preparation, preparation men.

Thanks again to the parents who helped with the sticks this week, Mr. Gray and JB Alumni Mr. Harry Parmar for their efforts on the PA and to Mr. Craig Letourneau for the game photos.

Week 3 Wrap-Up

Belmont Double Header Big For Barsby

JV's Make It 2-0

 

The day began with another outstanding breakfast served-up by Chef Chandler and his crew and things only got better from there.  Our JV's posted a 48-0 victory over their opponents recording our second consecutive shutout of the year.  It doesn't get much better defensively.  On offense, "Air Buldog" made an appearance with over 270 yards thrown above our lovely turf.  It was a fun game and it signals better things to come as the season unfolds.

Varsity Defense Ready To Unload

Our Varsity Dawgs played some great physical ball in a game shortened to the first half due to Dawg inflicted attrition on the opposing bench.  Hats off to Belmont for coming to play the game and they gave a good account of themselves while the game was on.  We had another very good defensive day giving up only a two point conversion. The defense also recorded four interceptions in the first half alone!  Belmont's lone score came off of a very well executed kick-return and we have to go to work to get better in that area!  Offensively, we spread the ball around well and the blocking was outstanding.

A big thank you to all the students, teachers, parents, admin, alumni and friends of the program who came out to cheer on our squads!  The Barsby Dance Team did a great job at both half-times!! A special thank you to Mr. Letourneau for his great game pics.  These can be viewed at:

Well done!  One Team, One Family, One Mission!

Dawgfight in The Cage 23 September!



The Belmont Blue Bulldogs roll into town for a week three double-header Friday, 23 September in "The Cage"!

Belmont is a huge school with a population that is over three times as big as ours.  The athletes that will step on to the field for the Blue Bulldogs will surely be a reflection of the draw the school has.  Do not underestimate what we will be facing on the field come Friday!

We will be wearing our dark uniforms for this game.

Go Dawgs!!

Week Two Big For The Dawgs

Week two was a road warrior week for our JV's and Varsity with 52-0 and 42-7 wins respectively.  Defense and some very good special teams "Pride and Joy" play characterized both games.  Our players travelled well and "delivered the mail" when they arrived at their destination.  This is good experience for the big games that loom on the mid-horizon.  For now, it is time to prepare for our week three double-header against the Belmont Blue Bulldogs of Langford.
