SEASON OUTLOOK:
The Bulldogs struggled with a very young lineup in 2014, but benefited from underclassmen getting plenty of in game experience. With much of the lineup in tact for 2015 look for the Bulldogs to be much more competitive this season.

According to the Coach:
"We have a lot of experience coming back from the 2014 Team. We have a good core group of older players and some young talented players for a strong mix for 2015. We will be looking for big years from our seniors. We feel like our club will be extremely competitive in our section and could surprise people in the region. We are looking forward to a strong year from the Bulldogs"
