Monday night at the Little Rose Bowl in West Branch, the Bears' 2014 season came to end after falling to Dike-New Hartford 35-18.

It was a battle of strong, physical, evenly-matched teams. The Bears made some critical mistakes early in the game that put them down 14-0 in the first quarter.

The Bears played well in the second half but it was too much of a hurdle to climb over.

The Bears finished the season with an undefeated regular season, a Class 1A District 5 championship, and an overall record of 10-1.
