One of last year’s Division 6 first round playoff games pitted the Bruins of Western Branch against the Bruins of Bethel High School. That game came down to a field goal with :09 seconds left and Western Branch getting the best of Bethel. This year, we will not have to wait ’til the playoffs to see Western Branch play Bethel. Instead it will be the season opener for Western Branch and game two for Bethel. “It is our first game. It is a huge game. There is no hiding that,” says Western Branch Head Coach Greg Gibson on the importance of Friday night’s game. The game will be held at Darling Stadium in Hampton and should be a thriller.
