Football season comes to abrupt end at Kibbie
The Lewiston Bengals varsity football team walked into this season’s playoffs with a 9-0 record, taking on the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies Friday, Nov. 4 at the University of Idaho Kibbie Dome in Moscow.
The Bengals had high hopes returning to the field, but fell short to Rocky Mountain with a final score of 51-21. This ended the 2016 Bengal’s football season with a 9-1 record.
Before halftime, the Bengals had scored all the points they would for the game.
“[It was] not the way we saw the season ending but you boys sure made a great run at it,” team representatives posted on the @lewistonfball Twitter page. “9-1 and undefeated in the regular season. We are very proud!”
The Bengals had their last season banquette as a team Dec. 4.
