The 1978 homecoming was one that always will be remembered. After all of the pre-homecoming activities were over, the homecoming excitement began to intensify. Everyone was wondering what the night would bring. The Bulldogs were definitely “fired up” and the feeling of victory was in the air. The crowd came alive when the Bulldogs scored first. At the end of the half the Bulldogs were off to an impressive 18-0 lead. During the halftime festivities, the lovely homecoming court was presented to the crowd.
