2012 Border Battle
7:01 PM
Friday, 26 October
Merle Logan Field Nanaimo, BC
BC's Best Rivalry Game This Friday!
This year's game vs the Ballenas Whalers is for all the Western Division marbles as the winner takes the title and goes into the playoff tournament as the number 1 seed in their bracket.  Beyond this, there is of course the competitive nature of the rivalry and pride that goes with a victorious game performance.  Barsby has owned the trophy with wins in 2009, 2010 and 2011.  This year's version of the Whalers is the most complete since they dominated in the 2008 game and a victory for our squad, should it come, will be hard earned indeed.
Fan support will be massive and decisive at this game.  The more Barsby folks that are present, the better the atmosphere.  Everyone has a positive role they can play.  Bring yourself, bring some family, bring some friends, ralley your networks.  Bring your voice, bring a noise maker, wear Red and cheer loud and positive.
We are looking forward to a great night under the lights!!
Go Dawgs!!

Varsity Fall Short Friday Night


 
Great Game vs The SunDevils...See You In November Fellas!
 
Our Varsity Dawgs fell short in a 13-6 loss this past Friday Night at Merel Logan to the South Delta Sundevils.  The story of the night was big hitting and tough defense both ways.  Both teams made some exceptional plays, but South Delta made more and that was the difference.

We are going to reload and get better in the coming weeks in anticipation of future big tests on the field.



Next Up, The Ballenas Whalers in the 2012 Border Battle!

Go Dawgs!

JV's Win 2012 Border Battle

Come From Behind Win!
 
 
 
Finish Counts!
 
"Having Finish" never rang more true than in Wednesday's 14-13 last minute come from behind win vs Island Rival Ballenas.  The Whalers led 13-8 most of the way, but we found a soft edge late in the fourth and capitalized on it.  Defensively, it took a rock solid second half to give the offense the shot it needed to get in the endzone.
 
Back to work Friday AM to prepare for Edward Milne who will be visiting The Cage this coming Wednesday.
 
Go Dawgs!

Junior Varsity "BORDER BATTLE" vs The Ballenas Whalers
3:01 PM, Wednesday, 10 October,
"IN THE CAGE!"
 
The always tough Ballenas Whalers roll into The Cage Wednesday for the 2012 JV installment of the The Border Battle rivalry game.  Look for tough running and big hits in this game!  The winner will have the inside track for divisional supremacy this season.
 

VS
 

 
Varsity Dawgs vs The Handsworth Royals

1:46 PM, Friday, 12 October
Merle Logan Field, Nanaimo, BC
 
This is a key divisional contest for our varsity as we host the well coached and very dangerous Handsworth Royals of Vancouver's North Shore.  Handsworth rolls in with one of BC's top quarterbacks and a superb supporting cast.  There will be no freebies in this game and we will have to "Bring It" physically and mentally to prevail.  Dawg Special Ops have to be on their game!!  Look for every short kick, reverse return and trick play in the book! Pride and Joy fellas, Pride and Joy!

A thrilling first half had the score 16-14 for JB at half-time.  The second half was all about bounce and our first possession was a decisive, quarter-eating drive that separated us for good.  Great work JV's, you left your mark on history. 

Next up is the JV Ballenas Whalers, Wednesday 10 October at 3 PM "In The Cage!" 

Go Dawgs!!!
