Bulldogs Earn First Season Victory at Homecoming

The Lindenhurst Bulldogs varsity football team finally earned their first win of the year at Homecoming, outperforming Brentwood 17-7 at home.

The Bulldogs, plagued this season by opponent's come-from-behind-wins and heartbreaking losses, finally were able to gain the upper hand on their opposition.

Peter Mangione totaled 88 yards on the day against Brentwood, including seven carries and a touchdown on the first play from scrimmage.

Kevin Harvey and Anthony Lanzieri also provided the offense with a big boost, racking up a combined 175 yards rushing.

Lanzieri ran a three-yarder in for a touchdown in the second quarter that ended up being the deciding score in the game.

Lindenhurst improves to 1-3 on the season as Brentwood falls to 1-3.

The Bulldogs will face Patchogue-Medford at home this week on Friday at 6 p.m.
