The Whitefish Bulldogs enter the Class A playoffs behind two of Montana’s top prep football playmakers — quarterback Luke Dalen and running back Cole Moses. In this episode of Keeping Score, host Luke Schmit of the Daily Inter Lake talks with Dalen and Moses at practice ahead of their playoff opener against Butte Central to talk about leadership, lessons learned, and the mindset driving this team’s postseason push.

Dalen discusses his growth at quarterback, the team’s “never quit” mentality, and how Whitefish has rebounded from tough losses to reclaim momentum. Moses reflects on his four-year journey, the brotherhood within the program, and how faith, toughness, and community have shaped this Bulldog team.

From emotional Senior Nights to fourth-quarter comebacks, this episode captures the grit and unity fueling Whitefish’s playoff run — and the belief that they’re not done yet.
