The Hermiston Bulldogs dropped a tightly played game to Pendleton
by a score of 2-0 on Friday afternoon. The single game was the
final IMC game of the season for the Bulldogs who will finish
the season Monday with a non-conference game at Mac-Hi.
The 'Dawgs (6-8 IMC, 11-14 overall) looked like they might keep
their three game winning streak and push their 6 for 8 winning
record with a win over the IMC second place Bucks (10-4 IMC,
21-4 overall).
