'Dogs to play Scobey for playoff spot

The CCHS Bulldogs fell to the Fairview Warriors On October 18th at Rowley Field. The 'Dogs were driving the ball on the ground throughout their first possession until a fumble gave the ball to the Warriors.

The Bulldog defense was holding number one ranked Fairview on the next series as well, at least until the Warriors connected on a 36-yard touchdown pass. 'Dog defensive back Ethan Mellon was in a good position on the play, but wasn't able to make a play on the ball and missed the tackle.

Fairview scored quickly on their next possession too, with a 31-yard touchdown run. The Bulldogs were never able to recover.

The running clock rule came into effect throughout most of the second half. CCHS was able to score a couple of touchdowns late in the game to get the goose egg off of the scoreboard, but it was much too little too late as the game ended, 16-41.

This Friday the Bulldogs will travel to Scobey. With a slightly healthier squad, Blue is aiming to rebound from their loss to Fairview in an all-important game where the victor will head to the Montana 8-Man playoffs; the loser will be done for the season.
