Braylen Dietrich takes a shot for the Bulldogs as they
battle Pierce County.
Pierce County Bears in an
important region match.
The Lady Soccer
Dawgs played well in their
match, holding a very ath
letic and physical Pierce
County team scoreless at
the half. However, they
conceded 2 goals in the
second half and dropped
the match to the Bears,
2-0.
In the boys match, the
Bulldogs got down early
after conceding a goal to
the Bears with about a
minute to go in the first
half. They fought back and
scored 4 unanswered goals
to take a huge Region win,
4-1.
Head Coach Jeremy
Moore said, “This was a
long time coming for the
boys. We backed ourselves
into a corner with some
early losses, but they have
responded well with the
win over Windsor Forest
earlier in the week, and
now a big win over Pierce
County this week. It was
good to finally see some
goals go in the back of the
net. I thought we had been
playing better than the re
sults have shown; we just
couldn’t find a way to
score. Tonight, we were
able to get 4 in against a
very good Pierce County
team.”
Goals were scored by
Braylen Dietrich (2), Jose
Leon (l), and Gustavo
Delgado (l). This win
brings the boys region re
cord to 5-5 and gets them
right back in the hunt for
the state playoffs!
The Bulldogs were
back in action at home on
Tuesday against Brantley
County after presstime.
On Friday they will be at
Savannah Arts with the
first game at 5:00 p.m.
