Week 8 Recap

Week Eight

The eighth week of the season saw our JV's crash into the playoffs with a punishing 36-20 win over the Bellmont Blue Bulldogs on Wednesday "In The Canem Cage" on John Barsby Field.  Kudo's to the hard training and persistence by this group in 2013.  We have been living up to our motto of "Getting Better Each Day" and after a bye this week, will be on the road against a top seed for the playoffs.  Fellas, use this week and next to improve!





At Varsity, our foes were the Carson Graham Eagles.  Much adieu was made in The Province newspaper of them working out at 0730 this year.  That put a bit of a smile on our faces as we own the AM!  Carson came to play and were a great team physically.  We accepted the challenge and won 21-0.  We could see these guys again late in the playoffs so no let downs at all!!



Next up for our Varsity is the Nanaimo District Islanders in the Ray Kocher Classic, 1:46 PM, Friday, November 1st at Merle Logan.

Go Dawgs!

Varsity Dawgs Vs Varsity Dukes!

Huge Game This Week!

 


 
VS
 
 
Varsity Dawgs vs Windsor Dukes
1:46 PM, Friday, 18 October, Merle Logan Field Nanaimo
 
This is a playoff game for both teams.  The winner secures a minimum of second place in the division.  The loser faces a tougher post-season road for sure.  Windsor will be PREPARED!  They are led by one of the smartest coaches in Canada and the number one rated qb is BC.  The supporting cast is very, very good, technically sound and rarely out of position.  Time to bring our A-Game Barsby!

Week Six Tilts

Week Six was a mixed-bag for the Barsby Bulldogs... 

Junior Varsity

Following a very good week of practice, our JV's got off to a very slow offensive start vs the Ballenas Whalers.  Down 14-0 at half-time, our JV's came roaring back in the second half finding themselves down 14-10 with less than four minutes to go.  We had our opportunities to take the lead, but it was not to be with the final score at game's end being 20-10 for the Whalers.  Next-Up is the Mt. Douglas Rams on Wednesday.



Varsity

The Varsity Dawgs played a complete game start to finish against the Spectrum Thunder on Friday night winning 68-0.  The outmatched Thunder never quit and were hard competitors and good sportsmen throughout.  Next-Up for our Varsity is a critical game vs North Vancouver's Windsor Dukes at 1:46 PM on Merle Logan Field.  At stake, no less than home field in the 1st round of the playoffs!
