On to Dublin for Lady Dogs


The MP Lady Bulldogs fought a hard fight Thursday night against a tough Rutland team. Both games in the region championship tournament went into extra innings and were full of excitement. A large hometown crowd made the trek to Jackson to cheer on the team and the support was felt by all the girls. And they put on quite a show! The Lady Dogs came from behind in game one, thanks to a grand slam from Chandler Williams, to tie it up 8-8, but the Lady Hurricanes scored three more and won 11-8. In game two, the Lady Dogs played hard and fast but lost to Rutland 5-3. The Lady Bulldogs will be the number 2 seed int he state sectionals beginning at 4 p.m. Friday in Dublin. Good luck Lady Dogs!

That is the first games I have been to this year and I could not have picked 2 better games to watch. Those games should have been on ESPN. Great effort ladies and coaches. You have nothing to be ashamed of and good luck in the Sectionals.

WOW!...I'm exhausted!...Great game/tournament girls!...EVERYBODY played with alot of heart, emotion, and guts! Girls Ive been apart of countless games/tournaments over the past 7 years and I must tell ya, that was the most exciting one Ive ever witnessed. From Amber's stingy's defense, Kyla's gutty pitching performance, Chandler's bomb in the bottom of the 8th, Marleigh's hustle behind the plate, and everything in between. Thank you, Ya'll made me proud to be a part of the "Bulldog Nation".

Hats off to Rutland, they had to play a perfect 2 games to beat ya'll and to thier credit they did.

Lookout Dublin..... HERE COME THE Mp DAWGS!

I was excited for the girls and moreover excited that the AD, Principal and Superintendent came to show their support. They were yelling and screaming up in the stands as if they had a daughter playing. What support from the community and school. Coach Shipman keep doing a great job. Go dogs and keep on rolling!

After reading some of the posts on here, I think the football community could learn a thing or two from the girls and what they bring to the table. These ladies lay in all on the line and for what? For each other and for the love of the game; Certianly not for the fame. Most of the town doesnt even know that we have a team or how truly talented they are.One would've thought the newspaper wouldve been there, but I guess maybe they were too busy getting ready for the football game tonite.
Go Lady DAWGS! Keep swingin' for the fences! We believe in you!

It was a great game. But, as for the newspaper -- I think they've done an excellent job this year covering the Lady Dawgs and as a parent, I appreciate all the coverage. Thanks Reporter and congrats girls. Take it all the way!!!

I started every game this season, so I have plenty of credibility when I say this. At this school, football is not fun at all. We are overworked. We put so much work in and we get nothing out of it. We spend all summer in the weight room, go to camps and all that mess. I even had to drop Biology to take weight lifting so I could stay on the team. It is ridiculous. But the thing is, everyone on the team does it and most people never get to play.
