Folsom Youth Football Peewees now 7-0

Special to the Folsom Telegraph

The Folsom Jr. Bulldogs Peewee football team defeated the American River Jr. Raiders 14-7 on Saturday.

The Jr. Bulldogs won the game in the trenches, where the offensive line blocked well throughout the game. Defensively, the team gave up its first touchdown of the season.
The scoring started in the second quarter behind the running of Cole Thompson and Josiah Deguara that drove the Bulldogs down the field and set up a 13-yard touchdown by Tyler Crandall with a great block from Tim Bonnington at the point of attack. Bryan Weldy’s extra point gave the Bulldogs an 8-0 lead after halftime.

The Raiders came out of half and scored quickly making it 8-7, but the Bulldogs kept their heads up and the defense of Mark Quinn, Matt Jimison, Wayde Luddy, Sam Whittingham, Nick Brown, Tristan Botts, Regan Allgier and EJ Turner responded and shut the Raiders down the rest of the game.

The offense controlled the ball and scored on a 19-yard pass from Deguara to Bonnington with great blocking on the line by Kyle Markus and Logan Oreno.
The Peewee’s finish the regular season on Saturday at Livermore Field at 2 p.m. against Woodcreek.
