The Hamilton Bulldogs made history last night by being the first team to EVER win a state championship in the 111 year history of the team. Both towns came out to support their home teams, with the population of both towns equaling about 5000, and around 7800 fans were in attendance on Wednesday night. The Bulldogs have T-shirts that say "Family" and a family is weak without a community behind them, which is what the Bulldogs have. The entire community shut down to travel to AT&T Stadium in Arlington to cheer on their hometown team.
Joaquin struck first scoring the first touchdown of the night, but the Bulldogs held them to only one, and went on to score three touchdowns with the final score being 21-7.
The Defensive MVP went to Senior Bret Bauman with sixteen tackles.
Senior Halston Haile was awarded Offensive MVP for rushing 93 yards and two touchdowns.
The Hamilton ISD coaches were all smiles, radiating pride over their team's hard-fought victory.
Congratulations to the players & coaches on a job well done over the season! And thank you to the cheerleaders, band & color guard, cheer sponsors, band directors & color guard sponsor, Hamilton ISD Staff & administrators, parents, student cheer section, and the whole COMMUNITY for their support every season! It truly is a GREAT DAY TO BE A HAMILTON BULLDOG!!
