A solid outing by the Bulldogs helped secure another win over Hickory High School.

Keontae Boyette and James Hatton went for 19 and 18 points respectively in the Bulldogs’ win over Hickory. Boyette added six rebounds and five assists to his state line Friday night. The win makes it the Bulldogs’ second of the week and keeps them among the top boys’ teams in the Southeastern District.

Sam Dunn led on the boards with 10 rebounds while Leontre Bailey added six steals.

The Bulldogs will have to put the win behind them quickly and start to prepare for a solid Deep Creek High School team. In the first matchup, the two teams had one of the better games of the district so far this season. It was an impressive road win for the Bulldogs. This time around, they will host the Hornets.

After facing the Hornets, King’s Fork High School will have to host rival Nansemond River High School on Wednesday.
