Observer staff writerILWACO - A pair of costly fumbles within 1:11 of each other in the first period helped Stevenson to a 9-0 halftime lead and the Bulldogs scored twice in the third period to earn a 23-0 Trico League win at Ilwaco Friday. The first fumble went to the end zone for a safety at the 5:40 mark and three plays later the Bulldogs recovered on the 17 yard line and punched it in on two running plays and a penalty.
Kasey Plato had a monster game defensively for Ilwaco as he had five tackles for loss and also caught a pass from Nick Cox on offense for the longest gain of the night, 23 yards. Brandon Nutter also had two of the Fishermen's dozen tackles for loss. Cox was five of 10 passing with one interception. Josh Berteaux gained 35 yards on 12 rushes and caught a pair of passes for 15 yards.
Stevenson scored on a 60-yard, six-play drive to open the second half following a foiled onside kick. Later with 39 seconds left in the third the Bulldogs punched in a score following two short Fishermen punts. Ilwaco is now 1-2 on the year and 0-1 in the Trico, while Stevenson is 3-0 and 1-0 in league play. The Bulldogs have out-scored their opponents 101-0 in their three victories.
