Dewar scores heavily in the first three quarters, averaging over 40 points by the end of the third, though their output drops off slightly in the fourth quarter (4.7 points).
The Dragons’ lone loss came in a non-league contest, but they bounced back with an 58-8 win over Waurika on September 27, cementing their status as one of the top teams in the state.
Head-to-Head & Common Opponents
Both teams share a common opponent in Waurika. Hollis defeated Waurika 48-0, and Dewar crushed them 58-8, each securing dominant victories that further solidify their offensive prowess.
While the two teams have not faced each other head-to-head this season, their respective success against shared opponents shows that this matchup will be closely contested.

What to Expect in the Upcoming Matchup
The upcoming clash between Hollis and Dewar promises to be an exciting contest of strength and strategy. Dewar’s explosive offense and perfect district record make them the clear favorites, but Hollis’ consistency, particularly in district games, shows they’re capable of an upset. With both teams posting strong defensive records, the outcome may very well come down to the first half, where Dewar has been most dangerous.
