It’s been circled for a year.
A game that ended in overtime heartbreak for Sulphur. A game that kept Washington’s dynasty alive. A game that sparked one of the best early-season rivalries in Oklahoma high school football.
Now? We do it all over again — this time at Calvin Agee Memorial Field.
⚔️ The Flashback: September 6, 2024
Last year’s clash was a low-scoring war that broke open late:
- Final Score: Washington 27, Sulphur 24 (2OT)
- Over 120 combined plays
- 18 total penalties (9 each)
- Freshman QB Creed Barrett threw for 428 yards and 3 touchdowns
- Sulphur scored 15 points in the fourth quarter to force overtime
In double overtime, Sulphur took a brief lead with a long field goal by Colten Cole, capitalizing after a penalty stalled their drive.
Washington answered immediately.
On the final play, Barrett fired a 10-yard touchdown pass to tight end Nate Roberts in the corner of the end zone — sealing the 27–24 walk-off win.
🟡 Washington Warriors (1–0, #1 in 2A-I)
- Three-time state champions
- 2022 & 2023: Class 2A
- 2024: Inaugural 2A-I state champions
- 45-game win streak
- Head Coach: Brad Beller

The sophomore quarterback warms up on the sideline under the lights ahead of a dominant second-half performance in Washington’s Week 0 win over Community Christian.
Sophomore quarterback Creed Barrett returns after a historic freshman campaign:
3,315 yards, 38 TDs, just 2 INTs in 2024
Josiah Dickerson takes over as the featured back behind a veteran offensive line that returns all five starters.
Case Alexander, a D-I prospect, is a two-way difference-maker who plays downhill with power and instinct at linebacker and defensive end.
🔴 Sulphur Bulldogs (0–0, #4 in 3A)
- 12–2 record in 2024
- 3A state runner-up
- Head Coach: Corey Cole
Kale Brakefield, a former Washington player, starts at quarterback after seeing key defensive snaps during last year’s title run. He now leads Sulphur’s offense.

Maddax Mobly, a Navy football commit, returns after a monster 2024 season with over 1,600 total yards and 29 touchdowns. He’ll be used all over — in the backfield, out wide, and in motion.

Colten Cole, a Rice commit and Division I tight end prospect, has been a cornerstone of the program for four years. A former two-year starter at quarterback, Cole moved back to tight end in 2024, where he’s become one of the most dangerous pass-catchers in 3A.
Jojo Gray brings size to the backfield.
Bridge Barrett leads a defensive unit that recorded 8 interceptions in 2024.
