Dowagiac’s tumultuous season continued in that manner with a 49-24 defeat at the hands of the visiting Otsego Bulldogs Monday night.

Leading 9-8 early in the second quarter, Otsego went a 12-0 run to close out the half and inevitably the game.

Dowagiac’s lone bright spot on the court was the play of sophomore Rayven Brown, who led the team with 12 points. Senior guard Kaylee Williams also chipped in with six points for the Chieftains.

Otsego’s Paige Koshar led all scorers with 17 points while teammate Kylie Hukill netted 10 points in the Bulldogs’ winning effort.

The loss dropped Dowagiac to 0-16 on the season.

The Chieftains will be in search of that all illusive first win when they travel to Edwardsburg to take on their Wolverine Conference West Division opponent Edwardsburg at 6 p.m. Friday.
