This week on Behind the Bench the early focus turns to the beginning of football season and Douglas' Week 0 kickoff against Fernley Friday night. Plus, a look at the Tigers' first three non-league games, which will give the orange and black some tough tests. After that, the discussion shifts to Carson High School football and the Senators' upcoming scrimmage against Galena and Lovelock. The episode finishes with chatter about Minden native Sullivan Cauley and his upcoming light heavyweight tournament final fight on August 21. Cauley's opponent does not have a single knockout, leaving an intriguing opening for the Northern Nevadan. Host Carter Eckl and co-host Duke Ritenhouse conclude the show with some banter about the NIAA sanctioning lacrosse and how the end result sets up a strange precedent moving forward. One the pair forecasted all along. This episode was produced by Jeff Mulvihill, Jr.
