The Sandpoint Bulldogs will head out on the road to square off against the Vallivue Falcons at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. Neither squad made it on the board the last time they hit the pitch, so they've probably got a bit of extra motivation.

Meanwhile, Vallivue and Mountain View finished up on equal footing with a 1-1 draw on Friday.
