On Wednesday, January 2 the 7th-grade boys, 8th-grade boys, and Sr JV boys will head to Lamar to take on the Warriors in a zero gravity basketball match. The Jr High Warriors are sitting 3-3 in conference play while the Jr High Bulldogs are sitting 2-4.
The Jr High Bulldogs are coming off of a 34-32 nail-biter win against Lincoln from their game on December 21st and are looking to continue to add to their wins column. Although the Jr Dogs are a young inexperienced team, you wouldn’t know it by the way they handle themselves and run the court. Head Coach Josh Atchley says his team is fine-tuning their rotations and getting some great game experience under their belts. “8th graders Lidge Stinson, Trevor Hunt, and Trenton Hunt have all been a big part of what we are trying to accomplish. Camdon Holcomb, Tator Tallmadge, and Drew Owens are quietly leading the team by example. They never miss a day in the gym to add value,” said Coach Atchley.
The Bulldogs are ready to start the New Year off by demolishing a quality team in the Warriors and bring home a victory. And since the Bulldogs roster holds an abundance of talent, that shouldn’t be a problem. Hit the road with the Bulldogs and watch them in action as they take on the Lamar Warriors on January 2 at 4 pm.
