  • Homecoming opponent cancellation doesn't dampen Bulldog spirit

    Oct 17, 2024

    DAYTON–The news that Dayton's Homecoming football opponent wouldn't be coming came just as the Homecoming Assembly was underway.

  • Gar-Pal wins make-up game

    Loyal Baker|Oct 17, 2024

    PALOUSE–With both of Dayton's last two Friday Night Lights rescheduled, the two-week break didn't help the Bulldogs as they fell 50-16 to the Gar-Pal Vikings here Monday, Oct. 14. "Taking two weeks off doesn't help us," commented Head Coach Lucas Collier, who pointed out the Vikings were fired up after defeating Waitsburg last week.

  • High Flyer

    Oct 3, 2024

    Bulldog receiver Denver Hutchens (16) went high for the ball, caught it then went heels over head across Waitsburg Cardinal defender J.J.

  • Second-quarter hammering tips game to Cards

    Loyal Baker|Oct 3, 2024

    WAITSBURG–Three instances of bad luck in a row for the Dayton Bulldogs meant three good-luck touchdowns for the Waitsburg Cardinals and those touchdowns slammed the door on the game in Waitsburg's 54-22 decision over the Bulldogs here last Friday. After denying a Bulldog touchdown on four tries inside the five-yard line, the Waitsburg Cardinals chalked up four of their five second-quarter touchdowns on Bulldog miscues. After that the Bulldogs blanked the Cards in the third quarter while n...

  • Bulldogs ready for Cardinals

    Loyal Baker|Sep 26, 2024

    DAYTON–A wave of illness swept through the Dayton Bulldogs' ranks last week, taking a bite out of the 12-man roster enough that last week's contest at Soap Lake was canceled, but team members have recovered and it looks like this week's game against Waitsburg is on, according to Head Coach Lucas Collier. Collier attributed the situation to the usual flurry of sickness that occurs when school resumes each year, and, with a small roster like the Dawgs have this season, the few absences make a b...

    Loyal Baker|Sep 19, 2024

    DAYTON–The Bulldogs and Sunnyside Christian Knights battled to a draw in the first half then both scored a pair of touchdowns in the third quarter, but the visiting Knights tacked on two more touchdowns in the final stanza for a hard-fought 26-12 win over Dayton here Friday, September 13.

  • Dawgs shut out Eagles

    Loyal Baker|Sep 12, 2024

    DAYTON–The Bulldogs mowed down the fledgling Yakama Tribal Nation Eagles football program in the 2024 season opener 94-0 here last Saturday. "After about the first five minutes," said Head Coach Lucas Coller, "my coaches and I tried to slow down the game as much as possible. Slowing down the game but still having the boys play ball was hard on us. I didn't want to take away from everything we have been preaching, but still wanted to maintain some sort of sportsmanship." Collier acknowledged t...
