Rock Creek Academy and Dugger Union to Kick Off Season with a Conference Showdown

SELLERSBURG, IN — High school football is back, and the Rock Creek Academy Lions are set to host the Dugger Union Bulldogs in a conference matchup that will serve as the season opener for both teams. The game is scheduled for today, Saturday, August 23, 2025, with a 2:00 PM kickoff at Rock Creek Academy in Sellersburg, IN.

Both the Lions and the Bulldogs are starting with a clean slate, each holding a 0-0 record in all categories—overall, home, away, and league. This game offers a chance for one team to establish an early lead in the conference standings and set the tone for the rest of their season.

This contest also marks the first of two meetings between these teams this season. The second game is already on the calendar, with Rock Creek Academy traveling to Dugger Union on Saturday, September 27.

While the 2025 season is just getting underway, a look at the history of this rivalry provides a glimpse into what might be in store for fans today. The all-time series between Rock Creek Academy and Dugger Union is closely contested, with the Lions holding a slight edge at 4-3. The two teams split their games last year, with Rock Creek Academy winning a tight 24-20 contest in August, and Dugger Union dominating a later matchup 42-0 in September.

Today’s game is a chance for both programs to prove themselves and start their seasons on a high note. The home-field advantage could be a factor for the Lions, while the Bulldogs will be looking to pick up a key road victory to begin their campaign.
