Holtville’s special teams made plays early and often, and the Bulldogs’ defense held on late for their fourth consecutive win on Friday night.
Holtville beat Marbury, 31-17, in a non-division rivalry game on the road. The Bulldogs (5-1) scored three touchdowns in the first four minutes of the game because of special teams plays.
