Busy weekend comes to an end

Well, the wild and crazy weekend just finished up a matter of minutes ago. The Lady Bulldogs' soccer team won two games Saturday for the Union College Bulldog Soccer Classic crown. Finally someone scored on the Union defense. Through five games, Union has only allowed one goal, yes ONE goal! The team has one more non-conference meeting before the AAC season starts next Saturday.

It took penalty kicks, but the Bulldogs' soccer team kicked to the Golden Corral Bulldog Classic title over Cumberland (Tenn.) University. Congrats to the Bulldogs on the win! Jonathan Shaw was named the classic's MVP. Congrats to the tall Englishman!

The volleyball team had mixed results on Saturday. The shining light is that Union got a conference win over Covenant, but Shawnee State only needed three games for the win over Union. Tuesday will be an important contest for Union when King visits... The Lady Bulldogs needed the two wins over King to win the conference last year and it looks like the matches will be key this season as well.

Oh yeah... the football team kicked off the season in grand style with a 27-21 win today at Lambuth. Check out the story for more information and don't forget to come out for the home opener next Saturday against Malone.

Not to forget, the cross country teams went to Ohio on Friday. Two Bulldogs had Top-30 runs and newcomer Bethany Bowlin posted a great time in her first race.

In all on Saturday, Union went 5-1 and the cycling team up in Illinois. Tune back in for more information on Chuck Coffey's squad. Shew... it's been a busy day in Barbourville!
