Our skills guys are pretty good. We have some good special teams. We are kind of a young team so I think that&#8217;s a little bit of a weakness because we have some guys that haven&#8217;t had a ton of varsity experience, but every week we\u2019ll get more used to playing at this speed.\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DHS lost to Fenton 28-14 on August 29, lost to Heritage 28-27 on September 6, and beat Mount Pleasant, 28 -7. The further DHS gets into the season, the more experience DHS football players gain, and the team has gone from being solidly beaten, to losing by a point, to winning by a margin of 21 points.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFenton and Heritage is a tough start to the season and we came out strong against Mount Pleasant,\u201d Tolles said. \u201cI think we\u2019re on the up from here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>As football season ramps up, DHS faces off against Bay City Western - UPDATE ONLINE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2024\/09\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"As football season ramps up, DHS faces off against Bay City Western - UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2024\/09\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DHSUpdate\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-09-19T17:51:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-09-19T17:51:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Cammie Hall\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Cammie Hall\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Cammie Hall\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/e58929e5a9ee890dd672c441ddd72a13\"},\"headline\":\"As football season ramps up, DHS faces off against Bay City Western\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-09-19T17:51:17+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-09-19T17:51:48+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":268,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#organization\"},\"articleSection\":[\"SPORTS\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"CommentAction\",\"name\":\"Comment\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/#respond\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/\",\"name\":\"As football season ramps up, DHS faces off against Bay City Western - UPDATE ONLINE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-09-19T17:51:17+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-09-19T17:51:48+00:00\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2024\\\/09\\\/as-football-season-ramps-up-dhs-faces-off-against-bay-city-western\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/\",\"name\":\"UPDATE ONLINE\",\"description\":\"H.H.
