STREATOR — The Streator Bulldogs racked up 394 yards from scrimmage, including a 201-yard rushing effort from senior Nick Harcar, converted 22 first downs and scored on each and every one of their second-half possessions.
So why did they lose their home opener 38-32 Friday to the Canton Little Giants? Streator also surrendered 468 yards of offense to Canton head coach Ryan Pearson's full-throttle offense, gave up a kick return for a touchdown and committed four first-half turnovers.
