Another Win!

Bulldog Football took another step closer to The Big Dance in Tacoma this weekend. By defeating the visiting Clarkston Bantums, 45-35, Ellensburg advances to face Mark Morris High School this coming weekend. The date, time, and location has yet to be determined, but importance of this game is already known. GO DOGS!

BULLDOGS TO STATE

It is now time to update all individuals (we have no followers) about the current status of the Ellensburg High School football team. As some people may know, I am in my second year of coaching wide receivers and defensive backs with my alma matar, and we have just completed the regular season with a perfect record of 10-0. This season has been full of amazing moments with a lot of excitement, which has brought back many memories from my own senior season. This Friday (Nov. 13th, 2009), E.H.S. will be taking on the Clarkston High School. This is going to be a great challenge for our team, and with the support of the home field fans, another win for the Bulldogs.
