2nd quarter:  The Dawgs picked up their third TD on a 5 yard run with only 4 seconds gone in the quarter.  The Dawgs got their second TD of the quarter on a pass with 9:06 remaining in the half.  The Dawgs then successively executed an on-side kick but their drive was stopped in the red zone and they missed a 27 yard FG.  On their next possession,  Trevor Johnson scored with 2:27 remaining.  Score 36-0 at the half.

3rd quarter:  Neither team scored during the 3rd as they played pretty even.

History of Buttermilk Station

    The oldest building in the Rossville area is the former Pearl home on the south side of US 24 about 3 miles west of Rossville.  This home was built about 1860 as a stage coach stop and hotel.  The original name was the NEDDO HOTEL.  Later it became known as Buttermilk Station and was a stopping point for passing trains.
    In 1991, Jack Pearl,  who had lived on the farm much of his life wrote a small book with photos  about the home's history.    You can read that history at:

Note that you will need to view the book on a computer screen and not a mobile phone.
