Coach Schrapps Posted September 11, 2010 Report Posted September 11, 2010 Tonight was definitely a different story than the first two games of the Bulldogs 2010 season. The Bulldogs had no interceptions and had put up 34 and 51 points respectively in their first two games heading into the showdown with Bridge City. Tonight would not prove to be the same though. The Bulldogs knew they faced a tough test, probably their hardest game outside of arch rival St. Pius this season. Kelly had opportunities to score and moved the ball well in spots but just didn't look fluid on offense tonight. Lots of credit goes out to Bridge City, really had Kelly on the ropes with some of their Zone Read and Option game. The Cardinals often gashed the Bulldogs for long runs especially on third downs which was the back breaker in this game as the Bulldogs struggled to get off the field. Bridge City definitely won this game in the trenches controlling the line of scrimmage and putting pressure on Kelly QB Dakota Eddins. Kelly's defense was hurt by Brandtley Wilson suffering an ankle injury early in the game. Wilson would stay in the game but with their leader clearly not himself the Bulldogs defense definitely was missing something. No excuses on the Kelly side though, this was a learning experience as all non district games are and can only help with the ultimate goal of winning district and making a deep run in the playoffs. Congratulations to Bridge City on the win, and Bulldog players keep your heads up.I do not have alot of statistics for this game other than some receiving stats.Nick Schrapps12 Catches 125 yards and 1 TouchdownGramm Klein1 Catch 22 yardsNick Barber45 yard TD runAlso good job by Kelly Soph. QB Will Darling as he came into the game after Eddins suffered a minor injury and was forced to sit the next play out. Darling connected with Schrapps on a 15 yard touchdown pass. The Bulldogs will be on the road next week as they take on Liberty @ Liberty at 7:30 PM next Friday.
