August 26, 2012 |
The Bonners Ferry Badger varsity and JV
footballs teams opened their seasons in away
games against the Libby Loggers Saturday, and
while the Badger JV romped to a 25-0 shutout,
the varsity team fell in a heartbreaker, 14-6.
It wasn't for want of a rooting section
according to Badger fan Tammy Satterlee.
"I believe there were more Badger fans than
Logger fans," she said. "I have a feeling I am
going to be watching more football this year
than I have in a very long time."
In the varsity game, neither team scored in the
opening quarter, but the quarter came to a close
with the Badgers poised on the Logger's nine
yard line. The Badgers fought their way down and
junior Brian Yeomans pushed it across the goal line from one yard out
early in the second quarter. The point after
attempt failed, and he Badgers ended the half
ahead, 6-0.
The Loggers answered in the third, pulling to a
7-6 lead, then scored again on a nice pass play
with 2:27 left in the game. The PAT was good
once again, and Libby won, 14-6.
