On Friday evening, Thorndale scrimmaged with Class 3A Riesel at Bulldog Stadium.
The Thorndale Bulldogs have some more dogs coming over this Friday when they host the Dawson Bulldogs.
Dawson is picked to finish third in District 8-2A-I by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football Magazine despite having just eight starters returning from their 2020 squad. They have a solid nucleus in quarterback Isaiah Johnson who has experienced linemen such as Hunter Boatright and Payton McCormack to block for him.
Game time is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
MILANO—The Eagles also had their final scrimmage of the season this past week with Huntsville’s Alpha Omega and start their season Friday when they welcome Valley Mills to Pruitt Field.
Although VMHS is a team with only nine returning starters primarily made up of newcomers and is picked to finish sixth, they are now under coach Bob Featherston, who spent the last two years under former Baylor head coach Art Briles at Mount Vernon. According to Waco’s KXXN, Featherston hopes to bring success to the program with a fast-paced style of play and an immense pressure on defense that forces the other team to make decisions fast.
Both Eagles team kick off at 7:30 p.m.
