The Bellingham Bulldogs followed suit,
knocking out the visiting Pacific Football League South Sound
Nighthawks, Saturday May 7th, on Mother's Day Weekend at
Lummi High School. Closing out their preseason undefeated, the
Bulldogs look to take on the rest of the WWFA in their inaugural
season.
Bellingham's offense started sluggish,
trading punts on their first and second drives. However a shortened
field on a muffed punt return by the Nighthawks turned into a scoring
opportunity. After a series of running plays the Bulldogs struck with
their first touchdown pass of the game. They would strike again on
their next possession but this time on the ground. With less than one
minute left on the clock in the second quarter Bellingham would
scored again with a field goal.
The Bulldogs' defense imposed their
will early on. Bending just enough but not allowing a single
Nighthawk to score the entire game. Bellingham would tack on two more
touchdowns, one by air and one with their running attack, making a
statement to the rest of the league of their arrival and intention to
dominate the WWFA 2016 season. Final score 31-0. Click here to view photos from the game.
