For the second week in a row, the Peshtigo Bulldogs shut out a Door County team as they handled the Southern Door Eagles 26-0 on Friday night during the Eagle's homecoming football game. 

 

The Eagles fell behind early, allowing Bulldog running-back Cody Nesberg to escape on a 64-yard touchdown run on just the second offensive play of the game.  The Eagles would block the extra point try, resulting in a 6-0 score.  The Eagles would quickly go three and out, and on the next drive, Zac Schonfeld would rush an 18-yard touchdown to put the Eagles down 12-0 after a failed 2-point try.

 

 

The second quarter did not go well for the Eagles either.  Quarterback Caleb Delwich would be knocked out the game with and injury and the Bulldogs would add another touchdown when Zac Schonfeld would block a Kody Wagaman punt, scoping and scoring a touchdown all by himself.  A successful 2 point try put the game at the 20-0 halftime score.  One shining moment in the half for the Eagles would be an interception by William Price, but even that came with a grey cloud hanging over it as almost half of his return was wiped out by a block in the back penalty.  Freshman Quarterback Beau Schley would lead the Eagles the rest of the game at QB.

 

Neither team could muster much offense in the 3rd quarter.  The Eagles would open the 4th quarter on defense successfully stopping Peshtigo on a 4th down, but could not do much with the ball offensively.  The Eagles gave up a 15-yard TD run to Schonfeld to close out the scoring and the final 26-0 score.

 

 

The Eagles hit the road next week to face the Oconto Blue Devils on Friday the 18th at 7:00.
