Bridgeport and Mitchell poised for tough Class B season
Bridgeport and Mitchell enter the panhandle Class B race with strong showings in pre season play. Bridgeport routed Bayard 57 to 37 and beat Alliance earlier, signaling a rugged Bulldogs attack. Mitchell, a regular contender, is expected to challenge others while Scottsbluff stands out in the west. Sidney faces Kimball in January as underclassmen progress and coach Leo Shuman shifts to younger talent. Hank Devies’ knee injury removes a potential veteran factor for Sidney.
