Bulldogs not looking past Mamou

Thu, 09/27/2018 - 10:39am

The undefeated Iota Bulldogs (4-0) will be on the road this Friday to take on the winless Mamou Demons.
Coming off their biggest win of the season against Northwest Raiders and with a big game against Crowley set for next weekend, it would be easy for the Bulldogs to overlook the Demons, having defeated them 54-12 last season.
However, Iota coach Josh Andrus is working with his players this week to avoid having that happen.

Wed, 09/26/2018 - 1:48pm

Heading in to the Church Point game last year, the Bobcats had a 1-3 record.
Not many expected Eunice to begin the 2018 season 4-0 with wins over Opelousas (53-36), Jennings (33-23), Rayne (36-14) and Crowley (36-32).
“We exceeded what we thought was possible,” EHS head coach Paul Trosclair said. “We are estastic about it but we have a big one this week.
“This should be an exciting game for the fans and we are happy we are playing them at home – it is tough winning in Church Point.
“Coach Arceneaux has developed a fine program, no doubt about it.
