Bulldogs Pound Box Elder

The Bainville Bulldogs improved to 2-1 for the football season with a 47-0 home victory over Box Elder on Saturday, Sept. 11.

The Bulldogs earned a 35-0 lead in the first half en route to the non-conference win.

“Our intensity was high the whole game,” Bainville Coach Trustin Holcomb said.

Jesse Strickland, a senior, enjoyed an excellent game as he threw for four touchdowns and ran for another.

“We had a lot more energy than we did last week,” Strickland said.

He added that the Bulldogs need to keep playing with a lot of energy and confidence in order to reach the goal of qualifying for the playoffs this season.

When asked if he rather throw or run for a touchdown, Strickland said, “I just do whatever is open.”

Defensive standouts included Logan Josephson with several quarterback pressures and C. Butikofer with an interception.
