Posted

The ECI middle School football team hosted Metter last Wednesday, defeating the Tigers 38-8.

The Bulldogs scored had balanced attack running the ball most of the game but adding pass plays to keep the defenders honest.

“I was very pleased with the effort that we game,” commented head coach Greg Kennedy. “Everyone played hard for 4 quarters. Out defensive unit ran to the ball well and caused a few turnovers. We ran the ball well and had no turnovers.”

The Bulldogs used a combination of hard running by Tuff Boddiford and Tyler Foreman for the rushing scores. Boddiford scored on a 1 yard and 9 yard touchdown runs. Tyler Foreman scored on two 9 yard touchdown runs.

The Bulldogs took to the air in the first half for a touchdown when Jackson Kennedy hit Foreman in stride for a 54 yard touchdown.

Ab Marsh and Chase Johnson also ran the ball for the Bulldogs behind their offensive line.

Aaron Matthews recorded his first interception of the year on the defensive side of the ball.

The Bulldogs will play South Tattnall on Thursday looking to go 3-0 in the season.
