Bulldogs’ Season Ends with Loss to Mabton

DAYTON - The Dayton Bulldogs' football season ended Friday night with a 31-0 loss to the Mabton Vi­kings. Bulldogs ended their season 0-4 in league play and 1-7 overall.

The Bulldogs had a solid game on the ground, rushing for 199 yards, compared to 146 for the Vikings. Running back Lowden Smith, playing with a hurt ankle, gave an outstanding performance in his final game, rushing for 132 yard on 25 carries.

But Mabton's passing game proved too much for the Bulldogs. Viking QB Roy Zavala threw for 99 yards and one touchdown.

The bulldogs were also stung once again by turn­overs, giving up four fumbles and two pass interceptions.

The Vikings scored twice in the first quarter and again in the second, as they took an 18-0 lead into the lock­er room at halftime. They scored twice more in the fourth quarter, including a late score on a 55-yard fumble recovery.
