SPECIAL PRESENTATION BY BULLDOG TV AND CNM SPORTS
2019 marks the 20th anniversary of the 1999 Bell Game. This is by far the most memorable Bell Game in the series' 69 year history, and the two schools' 119 year history.
The final score was 69-53 with your mighty bulldogs getting the edge in on the wildcats and returning the bell back to its true home in Centennial High School.
Not only does this game have a special place in both Centennial and Central's hearts, but it also holds significance in Colorado's history.
To this date, 20 years later, this game is still the highest scoring game in Colorado high school sports history, and Centennial senior, #22 Steve Sankey, set a school and state record for the most individual scores in a single game, totaling a whopping 6 touchdowns.
As you watch this special commemorative presentation, sit back, relax, and relive the majesty that is the 1999 Bell Game.
DID YOU KNOW:
Dave Craddock, current Centennial High School Principal was the head coach of Central High School's football team during the 1999 season.
