    The Whitefish Football team was back in action, Friday night, as they were up in Eureka for a match-up with Lincoln County.

    This was the 4th and final non-conference game of the season for the Dawgs.

    In their final tune-up before Conference play begins, the Dawgs looked like a well oiled machine.

    Sam Rainford scored 3 times, Luke Dalen had 3 passing TD's and the Whitefish Bulldogs cruised to the 42-6 win.

    Whitefish had six offensive posession's in the 1st half and scored on every one.

    Dalen 3 passing touchdown's went to Rainford (2x) and Austin Alton hauled in a 33 yarder.

    Dalen also had a 50 yard rush TD while Rainford added a 20 yard Rush TD.

    Vance Schwaiger had a 2 yard TD run.

    With the win, the Whitefish Bulldogs are 4-0 to start the season.

    Up Next: The Dawgs open conference play on the road, at Ronan, on Friday September 25th at 7pm.
