WICHITA FALLS — Playing its first game since Oct. 2, the Wylie football team was noticeably rusty in its District 3-5A Division II opener against Wichita Falls Rider on Friday at Memorial Stadium.

But ultimately, the eighth-ranked Raiders just had too much firepower for the Bulldogs to handle in a 35-14 win that was more dominant than the final score might indicate.

Rider (5-1, 2-0) outgained Wylie 352-35 over the first two quarters on its way to a 35-0 halftime lead and turned to its reserves to take things home after the break.
