The win for the hosting Bulldogs was crucial after dropping their first regional contest of the year 16-10 to Red Bay a week earlier.
The game opened with a scoreless first quarter, but a solo score from Addison half way through the second frame gave them a 6-0 lead they would carry into the half. The Dawgs' score came at the 6:13 mark of the quarter when Weston Smith crossed the line from four-yards out.
RED BAY - The score may have been low, but the emotions were high, what was predicted as a gritty hard fought game that ended in a nailbiter, as the Addison Bulldogs were defeated by the Red Bay Tigers 16-10.
The Bulldogs never gave up, having opportunities to outscore their opponent, but their drive pressing deep to the Tiger 10 late in the game was no match for swarming Red Bay defenders.
The clock was the Bulldogs’ final enemy, as the final seconds ticked away, ending the drive and the hope for victory.
