The Bulldogs got scoring from eight different players and cruised to an easy win over Foley Thursday night.

 

The game was tight after the first 18 minutes and the teams headed to the locker room knotted at 23 in the first. However, as Foley improved to score 32 in the last half, the Bulldogs exploded for 47 to capture their third win in the last four games.
