Dunwoody High Football Final Game in 6A

The final Dunwoody Wildcat football game in 6A was played tonight for a record crowd of 1776 fans.  It was the Senior Girl team cruising to a victory over the Junior Girl team in the annual Powder Puff game.  The young ladies at DHS put on a fine display of sportsmanship at S. Green Helicopter Pad Field at Vanderlyn Stadium.

The senior team had players from Austin, Chesnut, Kingsley, DES, and Vanderlyn.  The junior team had players from Chesnut, Vanderlyn, DES, Kingsley, and Austin.  And in a surprise move, they all had on Dunwoody High garb.  It's rumored most of the players attended PCMS, with a couple of home-schoolers and Private school comebacks.

The senior squad dominated the game with speed, speed, and more speed.  Only the not-ready-for-PrimeTime referees could stop the Class of 2020 offense.  The final score was 32-20. The seniors compiled 542 yards rushing, a record for Vanderlyn stadium, eclipsing the old record (Field Day 1978 5th graders versus 4th graders) by 200 yards.  The QB passed for 320 yards on a 14-15 performance.  The senior defense was very physical, causing headaches for their younger opponents.  "The flags are for show, we playing tackle out here" commented linebacker McSophia Pankihan.  The seniors were flagged 11 times for sideline violations as the players could not contain their excitement.  "Our team played hard tonight.  No joke between the lines.  It was like they were running to get the last table at $1 taco night," beamed defensive coach Daniel Dusty. No junior players or coaches were available for comment as after the game they immediately departed by DeKalb Yellow Bus to North Springs High to run stadiums for three hours.



Former Superintendent S Green was on hand for the event.  He cheered loudly for both sides.  "These Dunwoody kids are awesome.  I really wish Dunwoody was in DeKalb.  It's really nice up here.  I'm headed to Village Burger (Dunwoody's best burger.  Mention DunwoodyTalk all day Thursday for half-off custard) for a samich and some of those spicy fries!"
