IMG_1888It’s been a long wait, but football season is finally back; a time when entire communities can come together to cheer on their team. For Odessa’s Bulldogs, tonight marks the return of a loud stadium and Friday night lights.

The Bulldogs have some unfinished business to take care of for the 2017 season.  Back in 2015 the team was a State Finalist and earned a 13-2 record; however, they had a losing season in 2016- ending the year with a 4-6 record.  With the motto “Together We Rise”, the Bulldogs are ready to tackle this season, starting with tonight’s game against St. Pius X.

Tonight is not only the debut of the Bulldog’s Varsity football team, but also the debut of the high school’s new synthetic turf field.  The latest technology in artificial grass from Act Global is engineered to keep players safe and reduce injuries related to fatigue.  We believe turf can be used to enhance football by giving athletes the confidence they need in a surface to perform to their full potential.  With the Bulldogs hoping to make a comeback this season, this is exactly what the teams needs.Odessa

The Superintendent of Schools in Odessa, Robert Brinkley, is thrilled for Odessa High School to start the 2017 football stadium on the new turf field.

“We are very pleased with Act Global and our synthetic turf. The colors turned out amazing, especially the green/dark green turf. It looks great!”- Robert Brinkley.

The Bulldogs kick off their season tonight in a non-conference game at 7:00 PM CT.
