Gilchrist Grizzlies Football 6-65 Days Creek

Days Creek handed Gilchrist a 65-6 defeat on Friday night in a Mountain Valley League (1A) road football game, dropping the Gilchrist, Oregon squad to 0-6 on the season and 0-3 in conference play. The Mustangs traveled to Days Creek looking to snap a difficult stretch of games, but the host Wildcats proved too much to handle, building an insurmountable lead through the evening. Gilchrist managed to get on the scoreboard with six points, showing some fight despite the lopsided final, but Days Creek's offense ran freely throughout the contest. The result is a tough pill to swallow for a young Mustangs squad that has faced a challenging schedule this fall. Head coach and players alike will look to use these experiences as building blocks heading into the final stretch of the regular season. Gilchrist returns to action next week with a chance to pick up a much-needed win and build some positive momentum before the season closes.
