Both the Pike County Bulldogs varsity and junior varsity football teams hit the field on Friday afternoon to close out the opening week of practice. The Junior varsity team practiced in helmets and spent the later part of practice working on plays and formations. The varsity team spent practice in full pads and worked on drills. The varsity team also spent practice pitting the offense vs the defense and ran plays at near full speed.
The varsity Bulldogs will begin the season on August 19 when they host their cross county rival Charles Henderson at 7 p.m.
