The Republic-Times Team of the Week is the Waterloo High School football team coached by Dan Rose. The Bulldogs defeated Mascoutah at home Friday on senior night, 26-14. With the win, Waterloo became playoff eligible with a record of 5-3 heading into the regular season finale this week at Mater Dei. With 42 total playoff points (number of wins by opponents on schedule), the Bulldogs are most likely heading to the playoffs regardless of Friday’s outcome.
