Roger Dasch summed up a well played 5-3 season saying, They set a desirable pattern for future Bulldog teams to follow this is a contribution they may be justifiably proud of. They were not concerned with self glory but rather contribution to team. For this reason they always played well against some of the best teams in the state. The five victories were big victories, and the three losses were close games. Sprague 41-0; North Salem 15-0; Mc- Nary 10-0; South Albany 21-0; and Lebanon 24-7 were all huge Bulldog wins. West Albany was favored to lose two of these five, North Salem and McNary. The three games that West Albany lost were hard fought tough games; but the opposition of Cres- cent Valley, Corvallis, and South Salem won out in the end. Crescent Valley and Corvallis both were ranked in the top ten in the state. CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: Coach Dasch, Wes Price, Al Shibley, and Rob Smith all think about the Crescent Valley game.
