Scappoose Hosts Baker in Non-Conference Football Matchup

The Scappoose Indians will look to continue their winning ways on Friday, September 5, when they host the Baker Bulldogs in a non-conference showdown at 7 p.m.

Team Overview

Scappoose (1-0) enters the game with momentum after a dominant 56-29 victory over Pendleton/Nixyaawii Community in their season opener. Ranked No. 19 in Oregon and No. 4,049 nationally, the Indians showcased a balanced attack and stout defense in Week 1, making them one of the top teams to watch in Class 4A.

Baker (0-1), meanwhile, is looking to bounce back from a tough 36-6 loss to Cascade in their opener. The Bulldogs, ranked No. 84 in Oregon and No. 9,968 nationally, struggled to find rhythm offensively in Week 1 and will need a sharper performance to compete with Scappoose on the road.

Scoring Trends

  • Scappoose: Averaged 7 points in the first quarter, exploded for 28 in the second, and closed strong with 21 in the fourth.

  • Baker: Managed just 6 total points in their opener.

The Indians’ offensive firepower will be a major challenge for the Bulldogs’ defense, which gave up 36 points in their last outing.

Statistical Comparison

  • Scappoose Offense: 209 rushing yards, 142 passing yards, 351 total yards per game.

  • Defensive Leaders: Cole Krieger (12 tackles), Matthew Neilson (1 sack).

  • Key Playmakers:

    • Rushing: Elijah Greenan Biggs (148 yards per game)

    • Passing: Will Kessi (142 yards per game, 203 total yards)

    • Receiving: Nolan Lennox (58 yards per game)

Baker has yet to establish offensive leaders in 2025, putting extra pressure on their lineup to step up against one of the strongest teams in the state.

Common Opponents

Both teams have faced Pendleton/Nixyaawii:

  • Baker fell to Cascade 36-6 in Week 1 and has not yet played Pendleton.

  • Scappoose defeated Pendleton/Nixyaawii 56-29, showing their offensive strength.

What’s at Stake

For Scappoose, this is an opportunity to solidify their hot start and continue climbing the state and national rankings. A convincing win would prove they’re one of Oregon’s most dangerous teams in 2025.

For Baker, this game is about finding momentum and avoiding an 0-2 start. An upset on the road would give the Bulldogs a much-needed boost in confidence and standings.
