Waukomis Chiefs Travel to Texhoma, Records and Momentum on the Line

The Waukomis Chiefs make their first road trip of the season today when they face the Texhoma Red Devils at 12:45 p.m. at Texhoma. Waukomis enters the game 2 0 after a 61 to 39 victory over Covington Douglas on Friday, a result that extended the Chiefs to back to back wins and reinforced early season momentum.

Texhoma is seeking to rebound after a 37 to 26 loss to Hooker on Friday. That defeat dropped the Red Devils to 1 1 and represented their third consecutive loss against the Bulldogs, a recent pattern that has put pressure on Texhoma as it looks to stabilize its play at home.

The teams met previously in December of 2023, a close contest that ended 56 to 52 in favor of Waukomis. That narrow margin underlines how competitive this matchup can be, and it gives Texhoma tangible motivation to reverse the result on its home floor. For Waukomis the Chiefs will aim to protect their undefeated start and demonstrate they can translate home success to the road.

Beyond records and rivalry history, the game matters to local residents because high school basketball remains a central civic event for both communities. Student athletes, families, and local businesses often measure civic pride by these contests, and early season outcomes can shape attendance, team confidence, and school spirit as districts begin to crystalize standings.

Coaches will be focused on immediate adjustments from last week, with Waukomis seeking to sustain offensive balance that produced the 61 point output, and Texhoma attempting to shore up defense after allowing 37 points to Hooker. The outcome will affect early season momentum and could influence scheduling and preparation as both programs look ahead to district play.

Kickoff is set for 12:45 p.m. at Texhoma today. Local coverage will track final results and the implications for both teams as the season progresses.
