Yale High School’s first athletic contest was held on November 13, 1902, on a field at the Yale Fairgrounds on Sayles Road, and the spirit of Yale Bulldogs was expressed in the rallying cry “Go Blue and White” and in words pledging that the Blue and White will never die, that everyone will fight to make it the team’s day, cheer through and through as every Bulldog fan will do, and fight for Y-A-L-E to the end to defend its honor.
