Phil Pugh returns and
picks up first win

North Mason head football coach Phil Pugh made his debut Friday night after 10 years away from the sidelines and led his team to a 26-0 shutout against the Chimacum Cowboys. Pugh, who is seen here giving his players instructions during a break in the action, is the only coach that has ever led the Bulldogs to a state title, which he did in 1984 when the team was still playing in the 2-A ranks instead of 3-A. See page 3 for more on Pugh's return, the shutout and the team's prospects.
