The Bulldogs went winless in 2002 and 2003, but have continued their quick rebuilding process after going 4-5 last season. MHS will go for an undefeated regular season Thursday when the Bulldogs play Maur Hill.

In Tonganoxie, fans are pretty excited as well. The Chieftains dropped De Soto, 30-22, and won their seventh straight game.
