The Bulldogs’ first drive ended with a missed 40-yard field goal, but after a quick three and out by Wood, Vacaville got the ball back and capped a nine-play drive with a five-yard score by occasional running back/full time defensive lineman Blake Espino to take a 7-0 lead.

“To get the ball in our playmakers’ hands as soon as possible and get a rhythm going, that was our goal, and we did it from the get-go, so it worked out good.” “We wanted to come out swinging because we knew they had some guys going both ways,” Vaughan said of Vacaville’s up-tempo offensive attack.

Quarterback Ryan Vaughan racked up 108 yards passing in just the first quarter, connecting with four different receivers, and finished the night with 243 yards and two touchdowns. While the Bulldog defense was its usual solid self, holding the host Wildcats to a measly 103 yards, the offense was equally solid.

Oblivion two sides of the coin
