The fight for the Bullitt cup was an easy win for Bullitt East.

The Chargers started off this week by practicing hard and it paid off by winning the Bullitt Cup Sept. 17 against Bullitt Central. There were lots of great plays by juniors Travis Egan, Mason Gauthier, Nolan Davenport and Camron Brogan. 

What set the team on the right track was a third down pass by Camron Brogan to Travis Egan. ¨Travis scrambled pitched it to me and we got a first down,¨ said Brogan. This set the team off on the right path for a win.

The game had a large fan section, both sides went all out in gold and white. The Red Zone decked out in gold from head to toe as well as Bullitt Central, but in white. ¨The energy really good over there everyone’s cheering,¨ sophomore Maddie Miller said.

For more than 15 years, Bullitt Central and Bullitt East have been butting heads for the Bullitt Cup. North Bullitt has always been a team that never had the best athletic standpoint but Sept. 3, the Chargers won 56-14. ¨I don’t know that you could really say that it’s a rivalry at this point, I believe for the past couple of years it’s been a substantial win for us here at Bullitt East,¨ linebacker coach Tolliver Hefner said. 

The next game will be held at Bullitt East on Friday, Sept. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
