72nd annual "Dog/Cat" Fight set for tonight
After a tough showing in their week one opener against the Iowa Yellow Jackets, the Jennings Bulldogs are eyeing a bounce-back game against long- standing rival Eunice. The Dogs dropped their first contest by a count of 35-6 to an elite Iowa team that shone on both sides of the football. Jennings’ defense played an outstanding first half, but wore out in the second half, and Iowa took advantage with three big scores. The Dogs had trouble moving the football in the contest with the Yellow Jackets, racking up only 122 total yards in the game. The Bulldogs ran the football for only 71 yards and quarterback Chris Ned threw for 51. Jennings Head Coach Bret Fuselier discussed the offense and said the Dogs have some things to clean up. “We have got to focus on ourselves and fix a lot of those things on the offensive side of the football,” said Fuselier. “We have a lot of guys up front that are young kids and are getting used to playing on Friday nights. But we can’t worry about who our opponent is this week; we just have to play better and get ourselves right.”
