Game Summary
Brighton High School defeated Prairie View High School, once again. It was a similar story to the defeats the Thunderhawks have suffered at the hands of the Bulldogs throughout the past couple of seasons. PVHS has skilled players, however they simply can't seem to calm their nerves before this one game. Until the coaching staff for the Thunderhawks can become more adept at dealing with the drama and emotions that coincide with this game, the PVHS team will not be prepared to defeat the Bulldogs. PVHS did not play with the style and focus that they are accustomed to this season. Credit must be given to the Brighton team, for their overall team composer and aggressive play throughout the game. They were simply the team that wanted the win more tonight.
Brighton Bulldogs enjoyed their senior night with a great team effort achieving a good result vs a very skilled PVHS Team.
