FORT BRAGG >> Despite surrendering the most points they’ve given up this season, the Westshore pee wee football team improved to 6-0 on the season with a 25-12 win over the Fort Bragg Cubs on Friday evening in Fort Bragg.
“It was hard-fought battle this weekend against Fort Bragg, but the Westshore boys played great football in all phases,” Westshore coach Vince Rave said.
