After a road loss to the Collinsville Pirates in their season opener, the Tioga Bulldogs return home to Bulldog Stadium to face the Ponder Lions on Friday.
Ponder enters the matchup with momentum on its side after blitzing the Venus Bulldogs in a 77-0 win in their first game of the year.
“They're a quality ball club,” said Zach Birdwell, Tioga athletic director and head football coach. “They’re explosive on offense, have a lot of weapons, and they have a veteran quarterback back there that's been doing it a while. They’re also big up front and have solid speed from their skill kids. … It’s another chance for us to go play another quality opponent.”
