The Dewey Bulldoggers hope to turn around a tough start with an interstate rivalry game against Caney on Friday night. After a delayed start to the season Dewey is 0-2 with losses to 4A Locust Grove and 2A No. 5 Oklahoma Union.

The Doggers had their opener against Nowata postponed and only got to play one game in their annual trip to the Adair tournament. Lance Knight says the team is enjoying every opportunity it gets to play.

Knight says the start and stop nature of the first part of the season has hurt the on-court product so far. The Doggers have been shorthanded in most practices since they started several weeks ago. Dewey is hoping that it can compete against a talented Bullpups team on Friday.

Dewey lost the only meeting to Caney last season. The two sides split in the 2018-19 campaign. Radio coverage of the Bulldoggers and Bullpups can be heard on KRIG 104.9 FM starting at 8 p.m.
