The Bulldog offense wasted no time getting on the board, with Juan Cabrera scoring the first touchdown of the game with a strong run up the middle behind the strong Bulldog O-Line. Later, Dalton Parks extended the lead with the second touchdown, solidifying the Bulldogs' offensive power.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Bulldogs were equally impressive. The defensive line held strong, applying consistent pressure, while the defensive backs were able to shut down the Mustang's passing game. Defensive standout Caleb Tippit led the way, making several key plays that stalled Natalia's drives.
