			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ryan stayed in first place with another strong week despite missing on Tulsa Central, Ada and Bridge Creek. Jason was the only one to miss on his lock, losing out on Westmoore-Lawton.</p>
<p><strong>Last week:</strong><br />
Ryan: 7-3, 1-0<br />
Scott: 7-3, 1-0<br />
Jason: 6-4, 0-1</p>
<p><strong>Overall: </strong><br />
Ryan: 72-29, 9-1<br />
Jason: 69-32, 7-3<br />
Scott: 67-34, 8-2</p>
<p><strong>Ryan</strong><br />
Midwest City 35, Westmoore 21<br />
Owasso 21, Norman 17<br />
Edmond North 21, Yukon 19<br />
Tulsa East Central 32, Tulsa Washington 20<br />
Tulsa Kelley 28, Coweta 14<br />

Harrah 21, McGuinness 20<br />
Sequoyah Tahlequah 28, Berryhill 27<br />
Lawton 21, Norman North 14<br />
Lock of the week: Tulsa East Central over Tulsa Washington. East Central won the regular-season matchup at they’ll win again here as their defense slows down the Hornets while their offense continues to roll.</p>
<p><strong>Jason</strong><br />
Midwest City 31, Westmoore 24<br />

Edmond North 27, Yukon 14<br />

McGuinness 17, Harrah 13<br />
Sequoyah Tahlequah 35, Berryhill 24<br />
Lawton 31, Norman North 17<br />
Lock of the week: Edmond North over Yukon. Yes, Yukon is fired up because of the way last year&#8217;s game ended. But that won&#8217;t be enough to make up for the Huskies&#8217; talent. Edmond North wins and moves to a showdown at Tulsa Union.</p>
<p><strong>Scott</strong><br />

Harrah 21, McGuinness 17<br />
Sequoyah Tahlequah 38, Berryhill 28<br />
Lawton 28, Norman North 21<br />
Lock of the Week: Owasso over Norman. Norman RB Donovan Roberts is a game-changer. If he&#8217;s able to play, it&#8217;s hard to imagine that he&#8217;ll be at full speed after the ankle injury he suffered last week. And the Tigers need him to be effective to keep the offense balanced. Without that X-factor, Owasso should put this one away.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BY RYAN ABER<br />
raber@opubco.com</p>
<p>In the six days now since the news broke that Guthrie would have to forfeit eight games, I&#8217;ve had discussions with plenty of people&#8211;coworkers, other high school writers, coaches&#8211;about how I would handle the Bluejays in the Class 5A rankings.</p>
<p>Before the ruling came down, Guthrie was No. 1. I left them No. 1 this week and imagine, barring something wild happening in the first round (assuming Guthrie isn&#8217;t reinstated), they&#8217;ll stay there next week. That will be my last rankings until after the playoffs are concluded.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not a protest vote. Far from it. I considered what I&#8217;d seen from Guthrie this year and even with the exclusion of the player ruled ineligible, the Bluejays would not only be undefeated but would still be my pick to win 5A. Their defense is outstanding, especially in the front seven. Their offense is balanced and they get excellent play from the quarterback spot.</p>
<p>Not everyone agreed with that stance, though many did. In The Associated Press poll of writers and broadcasters, just two of eight voters left Guthrie off their ballots. The other six voted the Bluejays No. 1. Barry Lewis from the Tulsa World also left Guthrie atop Class 5A.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the complete top 10 in 5A:</p>
<p>1. Guthrie (1)#2-8*</p>
<p>2. Lawton MacArthur (2)#10-0</p>
<p>3. McAlester (3)#10-0</p>
<p>4. Carl Albert (4)#10-0*</p>
<p>5. Tulsa Kelley (5)#7-2</p>
<p>6. Tulsa East Central (7)#9-1</p>
<p>7. Pryor (6)#8-2</p>
<p>8. Coweta (9)#6-4</p>
<p>9. Duncan (NR)#7-3</p>
<p>10. Tulsa Central (NR)#8-2</p>
<p>*Guthrie forfeited eight games, including win over Carl Albert, pending Wednesday appeal.</p>
<p>Had I dropped Guthrie out and needed another team to fill my top 10, I would&#8217;ve gone with Ardmore (6-4) over Ada (7-3). That decision would&#8217;ve been easy. Not only did Ardmore beat Ada head to head, 28-0, on the road to start the season but they played Carl Albert and McAlester much closer than Ada did.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With a chance to all but put the regular-season title away, Ryan flubbed it last week, going 6-4. Picking Edmond North and Wynnewood turned out to be the difference as both Scott and Jason came out on the right ride of those picks and pulled two games closer.</p>
<p><strong>Last week:</strong><br />
Ryan: 6-4, 1-0<br />
Jason: 8-2, 1-0<br />
Scott: 8-2, 1-0</p>
<p><strong>Overall:</strong><br />
Ryan: 65-26, 8-1<br />
Jason: 63-28, 7-2<br />
Scott: 60-31</p>
<p><strong>Ryan</strong><br />
Heritage Hall 40, Kingfisher 14<br />
Jenks 35, Norman 28<br />
Tulsa Union 35, Stillwater 28<br />
Lawton 26, Westmoore 21<br />
Pryor 17, Tulsa Central 13<br />
Deer Creek 34, Ada 7<br />
Anadarko 42, Weatherford 7<br />
Midwest City 42, Norman North 7<br />
McAlester 35, Tulsa Washington 20<br />
Blanchard 22, Bridge Creek 14<br />
<strong>Lock of the week:</strong> McAlester over Tulsa Washington. The Buffaloes offense has been just too good this season and the Hornets have struggled at times offensively themselves. McAlester wins the district title and remains undefeated.</p>
<p><strong>Jason</strong><br />
Heritage Hall 31, Kingfisher 17<br />
Stillwater 42, Tulsa Union 38<br />
Jenks 27, Norman 14<br />
Westmoore 14, Lawton 10<br />
Pryor 17, Tulsa Central 13<br />
Ada 31, Deer Creek 28<br />
Anadarko 45, Weatherford 14<br />
Midwest City 42, Norman North 24<br />
McAlester 24, Tulsa Washington 17 Blanchard 14, Bridge Creek 9<br />
<strong>Lock of the week:</strong> Westmoore over Lawton. Westmoore&#8217;s defense has been impressive all season  -  save for last week&#8217;s shootout with Mustang - and I think the Jaguars can hold the Wolverines out of the endzone just enough to come away with a win. A Westmoore win would likely throw the 2nd, 3rd and 4th playoff spots into a three-way tie between these teams and Edmond North. All three teams are close in district points, so such a scenario favors North, which ends its season with U.S. Grant.</p>
<p><strong>Scott</strong><br />
Heritage Hall 31, Kingfisher 17<br />
Tulsa Union 42, Stillwater 38<br />
Jenks 28, Norman 24<br />
Lawton 23, Westmoore 20<br />
Pryor 28, Tulsa Central 22<br />
Deer Creek 21, Ada 17<br />
Anadarko 42, Weatherford 35<br />
Midwest City 48, Norman North 21<br />
McAlester 34, Tulsa Washington 28<br />
Blanchard 12, Bridge Creek 8<br />
<strong>Lock of the Week:</strong> Tulsa Union over Stillwater. Often, the loss of a key player at a key time &#8212; in this case, the suspension of RB Kendall Holmes, who was having a huge year &#8211; seems like it will be devastating for a team. And many times, it is. But many other cases, it becomes a unifying moment. This could have been the last poke the Redskins needed to wake up for a run to the state title.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Tennis</strong><br />
<strong>Tournament of Champions</strong><br />
<strong>At Heritage Hall</strong><br />
<strong>Boys</strong><br />
<strong>Team Scoring</strong><br />
1. Edmond North 32; 2. Metro Christian 23; 3. (tie) Heritage Hall, Putnam North 20. 5. Tulsa Union 18; 6. Tulsa Kelley 14; 7. Edmond Memorial 12; 8. Ada 9.</p>
<p><strong>Championships</strong><br />
No. 1 singles: Haworth, PCN, def. Nate Roper, EN, 6-2, 6-0<br />
No. 2 singles: Rodwell, PCN, def. Stein, EN, 7-5, 7-5<br />
No. 1 doubles: Hager-Olsen, EN, def. Hays-Proctor, MC, 6-4, 6-3<br />
No. 2 doubles: Lilley-Spring, EN, def. Cohlmia-Shear, HH, 6-2, 6-1</p>
<p>The battle lines have been drawn. Putnam City North has arguably the two best singles players in the state in Chris Haworth and Wil Rodwell. Edmond North has easily the deepest team of anybody in the state.</p>
<p>So when state comes around, might we get something eerily similar to what transpired this weekend? The Huskies playing for all four championships shows just how strong from top-to-bottom that group is.</p>
<p>Haworth bounced back beautifully after the loss in the USTA event Wednesday. If anything, I think that loss should have given him even more confidence. If he can contend on the world stage, he&#8217;s going to be able to certainly dictate play at the high school level.</p>
<p>The biggest statement, for me, would be from Metro Christian. The Patriots have had their fair share of solid players and tied for the championship last year. Would not shock me to see Patriots win it outright this time around.</p>
<p>All &#8216;n all, everything you would expect from this great tournament. A lot of quality play, and you can kinda gauge where the teams are at midway through the season.</p>

<p>Whoo, what a game Friday night at Deer Creek. Phenomenal atmosphere and two teams that gave us everything they have. Both Ada and Deer Creek have some problems, but it sure is not in the effort department.</p>
<p>A great back-and-forth battle with so much on the line. Glad I picked this game to attend, the final game at that Deer Creek Stadium. Massive renovations are in store that include a two-story (yay) press box.</p>
<p><strong>Deer Creek 31, Ada 28</strong></p>
<p>My biggest question entering the night was how Deer Creek was going to start. Bam, 20-yard run by Michael Coleman and it was 7-0 very quickly.</p>
<p>Anybody looking for an impressive aerial display certainly came to the wrong game. Though Deer Creek&#8217;s Alex Christensen and Ada&#8217;s Wyatt Robson made some timely throws, this was a game that belonged to the ground.</p>
<p>And it featured some big-time momentum shifts. The Antlers were up 17-6. Ada came out strong in the second half to take a 20-17 lead. Deer Creek responds with two more Christensen touchdowns to make it 31-20 midway through the fourth quarter.</p>
<p>The game ended in a big frenzy. Ada scored to make it 31-28 with 1:27 left. Then the onside kick. It sure looked like it didn&#8217;t go 10 yards. From my vantage point, I couldn&#8217;t tell if it hit a Deer Creek player first, though. If it did, the whole 10-yard mark means nothing.</p>
<p>All I know is that it seemed like maybe it was meant to be for Ada. But on the first play, Brennan Miyake picked it off and sealed the deal.</p>
<p><strong>Boneman&#8217;s Breakdown</strong></p>
<p>- What a game by Christensen. Every time you knew his number was being called, but it did not matter. Not. One. Bit. He&#8217;s a gamer that gives you everything he&#8217;s got. Finished with 242 yards and three touchdowns.</p>
<p>- Unsung hero was Shawn McLaws. It looked like a potential fake punt had blown up in Deer Creek&#8217;s face. However, he scrambled around and somehow booted a 34-yard punt. And his 44-yard field goal to make it 10-6 was big time. He didn&#8217;t get all of it (very low), but it cleared the cross bar. Big-time effort.</p>
<p>- Ada is going to be good, maybe great next year. Chase Bowker &#8211; junior. Robson &#8211; sophomore. Nathan Blakely &#8211; junior. Mason Girdley &#8211; sophomore. Look out for the Cougars in 2011.</p>
<p>- The press box situation at Deer Creek is certainly not ideal. But you know what it does? It gives you a great feeling of what the pulse of the crowd is. And that was a heckuva environment Friday.</p>
<p>- <strong>Up next</strong>: Ada (5-5) is at Lawton MacArthur (8-2) on Friday. Deer Creek (7-3) is at Ardmore (6-4) on Friday.</p>

<p><strong>Ada</strong><strong> (5-4) at Deer Creek (6-3)<br />
When</strong>: 7:30 p.m. Friday<strong><br />
Where</strong>: Deer Creek Stadium, Edmond (I will be there)</p>
<p><strong>Ada</strong><strong><br />
Why the Cougars can win</strong>: You have to remember that this is the same team that took Guthrie to the absolute limit. Ada only lost that game 13-7. Ada also went the distance with an undefeated McAlester team (21-20). Don’t let the 55-12 loss to Carl Albert cloud that judgment.</p>
<p><strong>Deer Creek</strong> (W- Piedmont; L – Shawnee; W – Tecumseh; L – Guthrie; W – Western Heights; W – El Reno; W – Southeast; W- Noble; L – Carl Albert)<strong><br />
Why the Antlers can win</strong>: Because the inferiority complex is gone. This team has to believe that it belongs with 5A clubs like Ada. It took too long against Guthrie and Carl Albert. They’ve got one more chance.</p>
<p><strong>Quote</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p>I won’t allow it to happen again (slow start). All of us seniors will do whatever we need to do. This is our night.” – QB Alex Christensen</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Key matchup</strong>: You guessed it, Deer Creek start. I’ma hit you over the head with this because it stands out so much. Antlers need a good start, and they should be able to settle down.</p>
<p><strong>The pick</strong>: Deer Creek 24, Ada 18. Think I’ma be seeing a good one. With so much at stake for both teams, cannot wait for this one. Christensen powers his way through the Ada defense for the game-winning touchdown.</p>
<p><strong>Boneman’s Deer Creek prediction record</strong>: 9-0.</p>

<p><strong>Ada (4-3) at Carl Albert (5-2)<br />
When</strong>: 7:30 p.m. Thursday<br />
<strong>Where</strong>: Jim Harris Field, CA</p>
<p><strong>Ada<br />
Why the Cougars can win:</strong> Because after a blowout loss to Ardmore, Ada has actually fared pretty well. The other two defeats are against Guthrie and McAlester, a combined 13-1. Ada has done a great job of winning the games it&#8217;s supposed to. Can it win one it&#8217;s not supposed to?</p>
<p><strong>Carl Albert </strong>(L- Booker T.; W &#8211; Ardmore; W &#8211; Duncan; W- Western Heights; W &#8211; El Reno; W &#8211; Southeast; L &#8211; Guthrie)<br />
<strong>Why the Titans can win</strong>: Because arguably no team is happier about playing on a short week than Gary Rose&#8217;s club. This group is anxious to get back out there after last week. The nerves shouldn&#8217;t be an issue this week and the focus will definitely be there.</p>
<p><strong>Key matchup</strong>: Taylor Hawkins vs. Ada defense. Though I expect Kenton Whittington to get a lot more than 11 carries in this game, think this is huge for the psyche of Hawkins. He needs to rebound, and the team needs to see he can be the leader the rest of the way.</p>
<p><strong>The pick</strong>: Carl Albert 31, Ada 12. At the friendly confines of Harris Field, the Death Squad defense allows the offense to relax with some big turnovers.</p>
<p><strong>Boneman&#8217;s Carl Albert prediction record</strong>: 6-1.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Ada (1-2) at Southeast (3-0)</strong><br />
<strong>When: </strong>7:30 p.m. Friday<br />
<strong>Where: </strong>C.B. Speegle Stadium</p>
<p><strong>Last week: </strong>Ada got its first win, 63-6 over US Grant. Southeast stayed unbeaten with a 31-6 win over Capitol Hill.</p>
<p><strong>Why Ada could win: </strong>Southeast hasn&#8217;t faced a team that can run the ball the way Ada can, led by Nathan Blakely at 289 yards through three games. Yes, Ada has lost twice, but those losses were to a pair of top 10 teams, Ardmore and McAlester. So the 1-2 record shouldn&#8217;t suggest that this team is a slouch.</p>
<p><strong>Why SE could win: </strong>This team is playing with as much confidence as they&#8217;ve had in these players&#8217; careers. Jay Gogue keeps the offense moving with his rushing ability, and the defense has been solid from the start. This team is looking to make some noise in this district, and this would be a good opportunity to get people to take notice.</p>
<p><strong>Key matchup: </strong>Southeast defensive front vs. Ada run game. Ada doesn&#8217;t like to throw the ball much, so if Southeast can slow the rushing attack, it forces the Cougars into a type of game they don&#8217;t want to play. But if Ada moves the ball on the ground, it falls right into their game plan.</p>
<p><strong>The pick: </strong>Ada 34, Southeast 27. I&#8217;m not completely counting Southeast out of this one, but I think Ada will have too much size and depth for the Spartans.</p>

<p><strong>Melton picks up win for Panthers</strong></p>
<p>If Putnam City North has a chance at repeating as boys tennis champions, it will need a big outing from No. 2 singles player <strong>Kole Melton</strong>.</p>
<p>The Panthers got that this weekend as Melton won the championship at the BancFirst Tournament in Duncan.</p>
<p>Paced by Melton and <strong>Chris Haworth’s</strong> championships, the Panthers tied with Jenks for the team title. The No. 1 doubles team of <strong>Wil Rodwell</strong> and <strong>Brian Diefenderfer</strong> placed second. Jenks earned both of the doubles championships.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Duncan</strong><strong> earns tennis title</strong></p>
<p>If the Duncan girls were in any other class, the Demons would be contenders for the state title. But in Class 5A with Bishop McGuinness, it’s an uphill battle.</p>
<p>However, that doesn’t mean Duncan has stopped competing as the girls won three of the four titles and the team title at the BancFirst Tournament at Duncan this weekend.</p>
<p>Senior <strong>Melanie Barnes</strong> earned the No. 1 singles title while Duncan also earned championships at both of the doubles positions.</p>
<p>The No. 1 doubles team of <strong>Taylor Spradlin</strong> and <strong>Kate LeValley</strong> are now 21-2 this year. Duncan played Jenks in all four finals and the Trojans placed second.</p>
<p>Here are the results, special thanks to Duncan coach Phil Barnes for the assistance.</p>

<p>Some people don&#8217;t understand my love of tennis. After back-to-back days at the Heritage Hall Tournament of Champions and all the great matches I saw&#8230;that&#8217;s why I love tennis.</p>
<p>I would have loved to have taken somebody who has never been there and have them watch all the terrific matches this weekend with me.</p>
<p>The boys was incredibly close and won by Edmond North. Now it&#8217;s not that nuts to think the Huskies could win, but it is kinda weird for them to win without earning one of the four titles.</p>
<p>It was balance and consistency that got the job done. Nobody placed higher than second or lower than third, tremendous TEAM effort.</p>
<p>Team scoring<br />
1. Edmond North 26; *2. Edmond Memorial 25; 3. Union 25; 4. Putnam North 22; 5. Metro Christian 18; 6. Heritage Hall 16; 7. Carl Albert 9; 8. Ada 7.<br />
* Memorial wins head-to-head tie-breaker for second</p>
<p><strong>No 1 Singles:</strong> Chris Haworth, PCN, def. Logon Collins, Union, 6-3, 6-4</p>
<p>Phenomenal match, expected nothing less. Haworth makes you bring your best game. Because if you don&#8217;t, you&#8217;re hitting the showers early.</p>
<p>Collins, a Marquette signee, fought back and showed a lot of heart in this one. I don&#8217;t want to say I counted him out early in the second set, but&#8230;yeah, I counted him out.</p>
<p>The seventh game of the second set (tied 3-3) was incredible. I&#8217;m not sure how many deuces it went to (at least seven) before Haworth pulled it out.</p>
<p>Look for a video with Haworth on NewsOK on Sunday or Monday.</p>
<p>Third: Nate Roper, EN; Fourth: Jason Proctor, MC; Fifth: Austin Manger, CA; 6. Bryce Merritt, EM; 7. Jonathan Borsky, HH; 8. Robert Jackson, Ada.</p>
<p><strong>No. 2 Singles</strong>: Andre Tardio, Union, def. Eric Olson, EN, 6-2, 6-4</p>
<p>A three seed gets the win. Tardio looked real dominant in this one though Olson gave a real good effort there in the second set.</p>
<p>Olson is a real steady player for the Huskies but not too surprising because the Redskins are extremely talented in the singles&#8217; positions.</p>
<p>Third: Brandon Cohlmia, HH; Fourth: Kole Melton, PCN; Fifth: Memorial; Sixth: MC; Seventh: Ada; Eighth: CA.</p>
<p><strong>No 1 Doubles</strong>: Truit Gray-Gavin Dubberstein, EM, def. Brian Diefenderfer-Wil Rodwell, 4-6, 7-6, 6-3</p>
<p>The final match of the tournament, and it was everything you would want it to be. Each team&#8217;s semifinals match was sensational, so you knew the finals were going to be.</p>
<p>Memorial coach Randy Mays has done a tremendous job with this team, and I think the Bulldogs have rightfully put themselves in the 6A conversation.</p>
<p>Third: Edmond North; Fourth: Metro Christian; Fifth: Heritage Hall; Sixth: Union; Seventh: Ada; Eighth: Carl Albert.</p>
<p><strong>No. 2 Doubles</strong>: Bowen Xu-Omar Karim, EM, def. Alex Mathieson-Baylor Spring, EN, 6-7, 6-4, 6-2</p>
<p>Another three-set marathon, and another Memorial victory. I admit to not getting to see too much of this as it was going at the same time as the No. 1 singles final.</p>
<p>But I did catch up with Xu after the match and can see the sense of relief/happiness in his face. Definitely sore, that&#8217;s for sure. Edlam in any sport is fun and this was no different.</p>
<p>Third: Union; Fourth: Metro Christian; Fifth: Heritage Hall; Sixth: Ada; Seventh: Carl Albert; Eighth: PC North.</p>
<p>Great stuff, hope you had a chance to get out there. The Class 6A boys race is going to be extremely intense next month at the state tournament.</p>

<p>Believe it or not, there are other conferences than the Mid-State and Metro. Special thanks to Harrah coach Guy Worth for all the results.</p>
<p>In fact, let&#8217;s start with a note from Worth on the event:</p>
<p>Thought you might be able to use these results.  The Harrah girls won their 9th consecutive team championship and the Harrah boys won their 10th consecutive team championship. Kayte Jasper from Carl Albert was the girl&#8217;s MVP and Isaac McKnight from Chickasha was the boy&#8217;s MVP.  Isaac set three conference records.  He swam a 21.96 in the lead leg of the 200 free relay.  I believe that is one of the top two fastest times in the state in that event.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>Harrah won 16 of the 22 events while I don&#8217;t have anything new to add about McKnight. He put Chickasha swimming on the map, and he&#8217;s only getting better. He&#8217;s terrific.</p>
<p>The other thing that stands out is the Deer Creek boys. Typ Whinnery, Logan Testi, Slater Pennington make up a great trio of boys.</p>
<p>Good stuff all around, and here are all your results.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With Shattuck about to break Morrison&#8217;s record of 90 consecutive wins, I&#8217;m wondering what are the other streaks in the state that are most impressive?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a few I&#8217;ve come up with. Let me know, either through a comment here or an e-mail (<a href="mailto:raber@opubco.com">raber@opubco.com</a>), if you have any others.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sure there are plenty more I&#8217;ve missed but here are a few:</p>
<p>- Morrison and Shattuck&#8217;s 90-game winning streaks in football<br />
- Tulsa Union&#8217;s and Jenks&#8217; stranglehold on the 6A football title<br />
-Asher and Owasso baseball dominance<br />
-McGuinness girls cross country<br />
-Bethel girls basketball state tournament streak<br />
-Bartlesville boys swimming<br />
-El Reno wrestling<br />
-McGuinness girls tennis<br />
-Cascia Hall boys tennis</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Class 6A<br />
</strong>1. Jenks (1)#8-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (2)#7-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#6-2<br />
4. Southmoore (4)#7-1<br />
5. Del City (5)#7-1<br />
6. Midwest City (6)#6-2<br />
7. Bartlesville (7)#7-1<br />
8. Edmond North (9)#7-1<br />
9. Mustang (10)#6-2<br />
10. Lawton (NR)#6-2 </p>
<p>The top seven stay the same here. Bartlesville still No. 7 after a loss? Yes. The Bruins did score 40 points on Jenks, the first team to do that in regulation since Tulsa Union scored 44 early in the 2005 season (Jenks won that game 48-44). Bartlesville lost but still put together a good showing. They do need to blowout Tulsa Memorial next week, though, and at least hang with Broken Arrow to keep that spot. Edmond North and Mustang move up a spot each. I think Mustang would beat Edmond North head-to-head now, but I’m not going to leap the 2-loss Broncos over a 1-loss Edmond North when the Huskies won the head-to-head earlier this season. It came down to Owasso and Lawton for the final spot, and I even had Owasso written in at one time, but went back and looked at both team’s schedules. Lawton has 2 losses; Owasso has 3. The Wolverines’ most impressive win was a 27-14 victory over Mustang. The Rams was &#8230; a 30-8 win over Choctaw? 20-0 over Muskogee? 19-13 over Enid? Not a whole lot to be blown away by there. The Rams are playing much better than they were before the season but Lawton has impressed more to this point. Putnam North was the team that fell out of the rankings after their 46-14 loss to Mustang.</p>
<p><span id="more-4423"></span></p>
<p><strong>Class 5A<br />
</strong>1. Tulsa Kelley (1)#8-0<br />
2. El Reno (2)#8-0<br />
3. Shawnee (3)#8-0<br />
4. McAlester (4)#8-0<br />
5. Tulsa Washington (5)#6-2<br />
6. Carl Albert (6)#6-2<br />
7. Tulsa East Central (7)#7-1<br />
8. Bixby (8)#5-3<br />
9. Tulsa Central (9)#6-2<br />
10. Duncan (NR)#7-1 </p>
<p>Not Much movement here either as the top 9 all won. The only loss was Ada falling 24-21 to Tulsa East Central and I seriously contemplated leaving Ada there but after looking at Duncan’s resume, I slid them in. Their only loss came against Carl Albert early in the season. They’ve played a couple close games in district but keep finding a way to win. They travel to El Reno to end the season in a game that will decide 5A-1.</p>
<p><strong>Class 4A<br />
</strong>1. Glenpool (1)#8-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (2)#8-0<br />
3. Weatherford (3)#8-0<br />
4. McGuinness (4)#6-2<br />
5. Douglass (5)#5-3<br />
6. Star Spencer (6)#6-2<br />
7. Broken Bow (7)#5-3<br />
8. Jay (8)#6-2<br />
9. Wagoner (10)#5-3<br />
10. Tecumseh (NR)#7-1 </p>
<p>The top eight here all stay the same. No. 5 Douglass sticks there for the second consecutive weeks after a loss but they lost by seven points to a higher-ranked team both weeks so there’s no reason to drop them, especially considering they hold a head-to-head win over No. 6 Star Spencer. No. 9 Poteau drops out after losing big to Broken Bow. Wagoner moves up a spot while Tecumseh, by virtue of its 19-14 win over Seminole, moves back into the rankings. Not sure about Tecumseh, but hard to argue to keep them out at this point.</p>
<p><strong>Class 3A<br />
</strong>1. Cascia Hall (1)#7-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#8-0<br />
3. Madill (3)#8-0<br />
4. Metro Christian (4)#8-0<br />
5. Berryhill (8)#6-2<br />
6. Clinton (9)#5-3<br />
7. Sequoyah-Claremore (10)#7-1<br />
8. Blanchard (5)#6-2<br />
9. Elgin (NR)#7-1<br />
10. Purcell (NR)#6-2 </p>
<p>There’s a lot of shake ups here after Nos. 5-6-7 and went down, two to unranked teams. Blanchard lost to Clinton, sending Blanchard from No. 5 to No. 7. No. 6 Checotah lost to Roland in OT and dropped completely out. No. 7 Bethany lost 35-14 to unranked Purcell and also dropped all the way out. Taking their place was 7-1 Elgin (Only loss came to Tuttle) and 6-2 Purcell (Lost to Lexington and Madill back-to-back early but have won four consecutive games). The big movers were Berryhill, up three spots to No. 5, Clinton and Sequoyah-Claremore.</p>
<p><strong>Class 2A<br />
</strong>1. Lincoln Christian (1)#7-1<br />
2. Davis (2)#8-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (3)#8-0<br />
4. Vian (4)#7-1<br />
5. Heritage Hall (5)#5-3<br />
6. Kingfisher (6)#6-2<br />
7. Millwood (7)#6-2<br />
8. Bridge Creek (9)#7-1<br />
9. Plainview (NR)#7-1<br />
10. Jones (NR)#6-2</p>
<p>The top seven are easy as each won Friday night. Bridge Creek jumps a spot to No. 8 while Plainview (7-1,  won 7 in a row after season-opening loss to Elgin) and Jones (6-2, wins over Millwood and Lexington in district play) move into the rankings. Lexington drops out, as does Pawhuska. Pawhuska has a chance to move back in soon, though, but hard not to drop them after losing 48-0. </p>
<p><strong>Class A<br />
</strong>1. Tonkawa (1)#8-0<br />
2. Ringling (2)#7-0<br />
3. Hennessey (3)#8-0<br />
4. Stroud (4)#8-0<br />
5. Talihina (5)#8-0<br />
6. Cashion (6)#8-0<br />
7. Oklahoma Bible (7)#7-1<br />
8. Salina (9)#8-0<br />
9. Central Sallisaw (NR)#7-1<br />
10. Watonga (NR)#6-2 </p>
<p>Again, the top seven stay the same as all win. After that, though, things get a bit dicey. Salina moves up a spot with a win and Central Sallisaw and Watonga enter the rankings. Central Sallisaw’s only loss came to No. 5 Talihina. Watonga’s losses came to Class 2A No. 6 Kingfisher by eight to start the season and No. 6 Cashion by seven last week. Okeene drops out after losing for the second time in three weeks and needing triple overtime to beat Texhoma earlier this season. OCS drops out after 12-10 loss to Cashion. That’s a tough break but hard to put OCS in and keep Watonga out now, after Watonga won the head-to-head.</p>
<p><strong>Class B<br />
</strong>1. Garber (1)#8-0<br />
2. Canton (2)#8-0<br />
3. Porter (3)#8-0<br />
4. Ryan (4)#8-0<br />
5. Davenport (7)#7-1<br />
6. Depew (8)#6-2<br />
7. Kiefer (6)#7-1<br />
8. Caddo (9)#6-2<br />
9. Weleetka (10)#6-2<br />
10. Alex (NR)#6-2 </p>
<p>The top four stay undefeated and stay in their spots. Fox’s loss to Alex drops the Foxes out from No. 5 as Alex moves in at No. 10 at 6-2. Alex’s only two losses this year came to No. 8 Caddo and Class C No. 3 Temple. Davenport and Depew each move up two spots. Kiefer drops one after its loss to Depew. Caddo and Weleetka move up one behind Kiefer and Alex moves back into the rankings.</p>
<p><strong>Class C<br />
</strong>1. Shattuck (1)#8-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#8-0<br />
3. Temple (3)#7-1<br />
4. Seiling (4)#7-1<br />
5. Maud (5)#8-0<br />
6. Deer Creek-Lamont (6)#7-1<br />
7. Boise City (9)#6-2<br />
8. Sasakwa (10)#7-1<br />
9. Thackerville (7)#5-3<br />
10. Tipton (NR)#6-2 </p>
<p>Top six stay the same here. Boise City leaps up two spots after winning for the sixth consecutive game after an 0-2 start (losing at Springfield, Colo., and at Shattuck). Sasakwa also moves up two after a 66-18 thrashing of No. 8 Claremore Christian. Thackerville falls two spots to No. 9 after a loss to Class B No. 8 Caddo. Replacing Claremore Christian in the rankings this week is Tipton (6-2, only losses to Geary and Temple).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Class 6A<br />
</strong>1. Jenks (1)#7-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (2)#6-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#5-2<br />
4. Southmoore (5)#6-1<br />
5. Del City (6)#6-1<br />
6. Midwest City (8)#5-2<br />
7. Bartlesville (9)#7-0<br />
8. Putnam North (10)#6-1<br />
9. Edmond North (4)#6-1<br />
10. Mustang (NR)#</p>
<p>A lot of shuffling here with Southmoore and Del City each moving up one spot and Midwest City, Bartlesville and Putnam North each bumping up two spots. The big fallers were Edmond North, dropping from No. 4 to No. 9 after losing 42-13 to Midwest City. Why so much? They hadn’t been convincing in wins they should’ve dominated and their schedule hadn’t been that strong to this point. So their first really big test was against Midwest City and the Bombers dominated, especially against Edmond North’s ground game. Norman North also fell big, going from No. 7 to out of the rankings after dropping a second consecutive game, this time to Del City 42-29. Norman North’s similar to Edmond North. The Timberwolves got a good win against Putnam North in the third week of the season but other than that hadn’t played a team considered among the top in 6A before two weeks ago and the got manhandled by Mustang and then beat by 13 to Del City on Thursday. So Mustang benefits from Norman North’s struggles of late. It’s not like the Broncos had a big test in beating Moore 42-6 but sometimes its just being in the right place at the right time. Lawton was also considered but after their offensive struggles last week, I’m certainly not going to move to Wolverines into the rankings after a loss. I’m still not too convinced on Bartlesville but 7-0 is 7-0. The next three weeks will tell the tale on them. I expect the Bruins to go 1-2, dropping games to Jenks and Broken Arrow, but if Bartlesville can at least stick tight in one of both of these games, it’ll show the Bruins aren’t just a product of their schedule.</p>
<p><strong><span id="more-4111"></span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Class 5A<br />
</strong>1. Tulsa Kelley (1)#7-0<br />
2. El Reno (2)#7-0<br />
3. Shawnee (3)#7-0<br />
4. McAlester (4)#7-0<br />
5. Tulsa Washington (5)#5-2<br />
6. Carl Albert (6)#5-2<br />
7. Tulsa East Central (7)#6-1<br />
8. Bixby (8)#4-3<br />
9. Tulsa Central (9)#5-2<br />
10. Ada (NR)#6-1</p>
<p>Not much change here as the top nine stays the same. No real considertation to any moves as all but Tulsa Central won and Tulsa Central’s loss was by six to undefeated McAlester. Plus Ada is the team moving back into the rankings after a 35-6 win and Ada dropped out after losing to Tulsa Central last week.</p>
<p><strong>Class 4A<br />
</strong>1. Glenpool (1)#7-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (2)#7-0<br />
3. Weatherford (3)#7-0<br />
4. McGuinness (4)#5-2<br />
5. Douglass (5)#5-2<br />
6. Star Spencer (7)#5-2<br />
7. Broken Bow (9)#4-3<br />
8. Jay (10)#5-2<br />
9. Poteau (6)#6-1<br />
10. Wagoner (8)#4-3</p>
<p>No teams moving in and out although I did give a close look to Oologah. Douglass doesn’t drop after a 14-7 loss to McGuinness. Two teams ranked that close should play close plus it wouldn’t make sense to drop them behind Star Spencer, after Douglass beat the Bobcats earlier this season. Broken Bow and Jay move up two spots. Poteau stays in front of Wagoner to fill the last two spots. I still think both of those teams are better than any teams I would’ve filled in those final holes with. Certainly Poteau has earned it at 4-3 and Wagoner’s losses are to Tulsa East Central, Poteau and now Broken Bow. And they have good wins with Grove and Fort Gibson.</p>
<p><strong>Class 3A<br />
</strong>1. Cascia Hall (1)#6-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#7-0<br />
3. Madill (3)#7-0<br />
4. Metro Christian (5)#7-0<br />
5. Blanchard (6)#6-1<br />
6. Checotah (4)#6-1<br />
7. Bethany (7)#6-1<br />
8. Berryhill (8)#5-2<br />
9. Clinton (9)#4-3<br />
10. Sequoyah-Claremore (10)#6-1</p>
<p>Not much movement here as the only ranked team to lose was No. 4 Checotah by two points to No. 5 Metro Christian. Metro moves up a spot as does Blanchard. The decision was where to put Checotah. They’re obviously worthy of a top 7 ranking but in the end Blanchard ‘s resume, with wins over Bridge Creek and Anadarko, is slightly more impressive than Checotah’s. Ill revisit that from week to week though.</p>
<p><strong>Class 2A<br />
</strong>1. Lincoln Christian (1)#6-1<br />
2. Davis (2)#7-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (3)#7-0<br />
4. Vian (4)#6-1<br />
5. Heritage Hall (5)#4-3<br />
6. Kingfisher (6)#5-2<br />
7. Millwood (7)#5-2<br />
8. Lexington (8)#6-1<br />
9. Bridge Creek (9)#6-1<br />
10. Pawhuska (10)#7-0</p>
<p>Easy to figure out here as all the top 10 teams won. Everybody holds serve.</p>
<p><strong>Class A<br />
</strong>1. Tonkawa (1)#7-0<br />
2. Ringling (2)#6-0<br />
3. Hennessey (3)#7-0<br />
4. Stroud (4)#7-0<br />
5. Talihina (7)#7-0<br />
6. Cashion (NR)#7-0<br />
7. Oklahoma Bible (6)#6-1<br />
8. Okeene (8)#6-1<br />
9. Salina (NR)#7-0<br />
10. Oklahoma Christian (10)#6-1</p>
<p>Some shuffling here after the top four as No. 5 Commerce crashes out of the rankings after a 22-14 lost to previously undefeated Salina. Salina had been slow to move up because of a relatively weak schedule to this point — and they shouldn’t be tested again in the regular season — but Salina certainly proved itself against Commerce. Cashion also moves in with a big win over a ranked opponent. Cashion stays undefeated by beating Watonga. Talihina moves up two spots, Oklahoma Bible drops a spot after losing to Hennessey, and Okeene and OCS hold steady.</p>
<p><strong>Class B<br />
</strong>1. Garber (1)#7-0<br />
2. Canton (2)#7-0<br />
3. Porter (4)#7-0<br />
4. Ryan (5)#7-0<br />
5. Fox (6)#6-1<br />
6. Kiefer (7)#7-0<br />
7. Davenport (8)#6-1<br />
8. Depew (10)#5-2<br />
9. Caddo (NR)#5-2<br />
10. Weleetka (NR)#5-2</p>
<p>There’s a lot of shuffling here, due in large part to Geary’s big upset of No. 3 Laverne. Laverne drops all the way out after losing their third in four games. Not sure what’s going on with Laverne right now but it’s not good. And it doesn’t get any easier with No. 1 Garber traveling to Laverne this week. Alex also drops out with its loss to Caddo. It’s Caddo’s second week in a row to beat a ranked team. Caddo’s lone losses came to No. 4 Ryan and No. 5 Fox early in the year so they move into the rankings. It doesn’t get any easier for Caddo, though, as it hosts Class C No. 7 Thackerville this week. Looked at Geary but hard to move them in with two losses to unranked teams.</p>
<p><strong>Class C<br />
</strong>1. Shattuck (1)#7-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#7-0<br />
3. Temple (3)#6-1<br />
4. Seiling (4)#6-1<br />
5. Maud (6)#7-0<br />
6. Deer Creek-Lamont (7)#6-1<br />
7. Thackerville (5)#5-2<br />
8. Claremore Chr. (9)#5-2<br />
9. Boise City (10)#5-2<br />
10. Sasakwa (NR)#6-1</p>
<p>The top four stay the same. Maud and Deer Creek-Lamont move up a spot each while Thackerville falls two to No. 7 and No. 8 Covington-Douglas falls out completely after a loss to Deer Creek-Lamont. I still think C-D might be one of the top 10 teams in the class but they’re 3-4 right now and they really haven’t beaten one of the top 15-20 teams in the class. They could be good, you just don’t know. Sasakwa moves into the rankings after scoring 50 or more points for the fourth time this year in a win over OCA.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Class 6A<br />
</strong>1. Jenks (1)#6-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (2)#5-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#4-2<br />
4. Edmond North (5)#6-0<br />
5. Southmoore (7)#5-1<br />
6. Del City (8)#5-1<br />
7. Norman North (4)#4-1<br />
8. Midwest City (9)#4-2<br />
9. Bartlesville (10)#6-0<br />
10. Putnam North (NR)#5-1</p>
<p>There seems to be about 12-13 teams that deserve to ve ranked in 6A but none outside the top 3 much deserve to be about 6-7. Save the outrage Edmond North fans. I was looking for the Huskies to really put a hurting on Putnam City tonight and they didn’t at all. They beat Mustang by 10 in the second week but outside of that, they really should’ve won by more in each of their other five wins. Now, 6-0 is 6-0 so Edmond North is No. 4 but not real confident in that. The Huskies need some more killer instinct and they’ve got to show it next week. Lawton drops out, mainly because no one else lost (besides Broken Arrow and the Tigers’ only losses are to Jenks and Tulsa Union) and Putnam North deserves a spot after beating Southmoore last week.</p>
<p><span id="more-3869"></span></p>
<p><strong>Class 5A<br />
</strong>1. Tulsa Kelley (1)#6-0<br />
2. El Reno (2)#6-0<br />
3. Shawnee (3)#6-0<br />
4. McAlester (4)#6-0<br />
5. Tulsa Washington (5)#4-2<br />
6. Carl Albert (6)#4-2<br />
7. Tulsa East Central (7)#4-1<br />
8. Bixby (10)#3-3<br />
9. Tulsa Central (NR)#5-1<br />
10. Guthrie (NR)#4-2</p>
<p>The biggest addition here is Guthrie, which beat Harrah 35-0 and has contonied to look impressive since an 0-2 start. Debated between them and leaving Lawton Mac in but they both played El Reno, and Guthrie (while not scoring themselves) only allowed 18 points to the Indians while they dropped 42 on Lawton Mac on Friday night. And Guthrie’s defense is still just as good while its offense has gotten much better since then. Guthrie gets a test this week when Carl Albert comes to town. The other new entrant here is Tulsa Central, which beat previously undefeated Ada. Central nearly jumped in a couple weeks ago before a second-half meltdown led to East Central beating the Braves. Tulsa East Central plays Tulsa Edison on Saturday which could alter things if Edison wins but I don’t see that happening.</p>
<p><strong>Class 4A<br />
</strong>1. Glenpool (1)#6-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (2)#6-0<br />
3. Weatherford (3)#6-0<br />
4. McGuinness (4)#4-2<br />
5. Douglass (5)#5-1<br />
6. Poteau (8)#6-0<br />
7. Star Spencer (9)#4-2<br />
8. Wagoner (6)#4-2<br />
9. Broken Bow (10)#3-3<br />
10. Jay (NR)#4-2</p>
<p>The top five here hold serve but there could be plenty of shuffling the next couple weeks as Douglass plays Weatherford and McGuinness the next two weeks. Poteau pulls off the upset of the night, beating Wagoner and switching spots with the Bulldogs. The battle for the No. 10 spot (vacated by Grove) came down to Collinsville and Jay. Collinsville has lost to Hilldale (2-4) and Catoosa (3-3) while Jay’s losses came to Gravette, Ark., and 5-1 Pryor. So Jay it is.</p>
<p><strong>Class 3A<br />
</strong>1. Cascia Hall (1)#5-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#6-0<br />
3. Madill (4)#6-0<br />
4. Checotah (5)#6-0<br />
5. Metro Christian (7)#6-0<br />
6. Blanchard (10)#5-1<br />
7. Bethany (6)#5-1<br />
8. Berryhill (NR)#4-2<br />
9. Clinton (9)#3-3<br />
10. Sequoyah-Claremore (3)#5-1</p>
<p>Lots of shaking things up here as Sequyah-Claremore falls to Berryhill 24-14. But looking at Berryhill’s results so far maybe we shouldn’t be so surprised. They lost to Glenpool by 19 and Cascia Hall by 18, not exactly embarrassing margins against the top teams in 4A and 3A, respectively. Berryhill moves up to No. 8, Blanchard moves up to No. 6 while Bethany falls a spot after losing to Madill. Clinton stays at No. 9 and Sequoyah-Claremore drops seven spots to No. 10. Even though they lost, I think Clinton really showed they can still be a force in 3A after playing Tuttle within a point despite being without Delans Griffin. Anadarko also drops out after a big loss to Elgin.</p>
<p><strong>Class 2A<br />
</strong>1. Lincoln Christian (1)#5-1<br />
2. Davis (2)#6-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (3)#6-0<br />
4. Vian (5)#5-1<br />
5. Heritage Hall (6)#3-3<br />
6. Kingfisher (7)#4-2<br />
7. Millwood (8)#4-2<br />
8. Lexington (4)#5-1<br />
9. Bridge Creek (9)#5-1<br />
10. Pawhuska (10)#6-0</p>
<p>All of the shifting here happens because of one game, Millwood’s win over Lexington. Vian, Heritage Hall, Kingfisher and Millwood each moves up a spot while Lexington drops four to No. 8. I think Lexington and Millwood might be a little better than their spots but that’ll come out the next few weeks.</p>
<p><strong>Class A<br />
</strong>1. Tonkawa (2)#6-0<br />
2. Ringling (3)#5-0<br />
3. Hennessey (4)#6-0<br />
4. Stroud (5)#6-0<br />
5. Commerce (6)#6-0<br />
6. Oklahoma Bible (10)#6-0<br />
7. Talihina (8)#6-0<br />
8. Okeene (1)#5-1<br />
9. Watonga (9)#5-1<br />
10. Oklahoma Christian (NR)#5-1</p>
<p>Big movings here as Okeene’s loss to Oklahoma Bible causes a re-think of the top spots. With seven undefeated teams in the class, all of those leapfrog Okeene, who drops all the way to No. 8. Watonga sticks where they were and Oklahoma Christian takes advantage of Woodland’s loss to Pawnee to move back in at No. 10. The Black Bears (4-2) were the other team strongly considered for that spot.</p>
<p><strong>Class B<br />
</strong>1. Garber (1)#6-0<br />
2. Canton (2)#6-0<br />
3. Laverne (3)#4-2<br />
4. Porter (4)#6-0<br />
5. Ryan (5)#6-0<br />
6. Fox (6)#5-1<br />
7. Kiefer (7)#6-0<br />
8. Davenport (10)#5-1<br />
9. Alex (9)#5-1<br />
10. Depew (NR)#4-2</p>
<p>The top 7 here stay the same but Davenport’s win over Weleetka shakes up the bottom three spots. Davenport moves up two spots to No. 8, Alex stay No. 9 and Depew moves into the final spot, thanks to a head-to-head win over Weleetka.</p>
<p><strong>Class C<br />
</strong>1. Shattuck (1)#6-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#6-0<br />
3. Temple (3)#5-1<br />
4. Seiling (4)#5-1<br />
5. Thackerville (5)#5-1<br />
6. Maud (8)#6-0<br />
7. Deer Creek-Lamont (7)#5-1<br />
8. Covington-Douglas (6)#3-3<br />
9. Claremore Chr. (9)#4-2<br />
10. Boise City (10)#4-2</p>
<p>Just a bit of shuffling near the bottom here, although most of the winning came from other ranked teams. Maud moves up by staying undefeated while Deer Creek-Lamont and Covington-Douglas switch and drop down a spot as a block. Claremore Christian and Boise City stay where they were.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Class 6A<br />
1. Jenks (1)#5-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (2)#4-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#4-1<br />
4. Norman North (7)#4-0<br />
5. Edmond North (5)#5-0<br />
6. Lawton (NR)#5-0<br />
7. Southmoore (4)#4-1<br />
8. Del City (8)#4-1<br />
9. Midwest City (9)#3-2<br />
10. Bartlesville (10)#5-0</p>
<p>So last week 5A was the rankings that gave me the most problems. This week it was 6A. Southmoore’s loss to Putnam North, Lawton’s win over Mustang, Edmond North’s allowing 28 points to Norman and Del City’s close win over Edmond Santa Fe all came into play here. Norman North looks like the team to beat in the West, especially after Southmoore’s surprising loss to Putnam North. Putnam North could very well be a top 10 team but Southmoore’s overall resume is better at this point. Southmoore beat Del City and Midwest City and those two wins give the SaberCats the resume to stay ranked. There will definitely be some shakeups here next week as well, with Lawton playing at Del City next week. Jenks is playing at Broken Arrow next week as well but I’d expect Jenks to win that and the top 3 not change. Though with the distractions for Jenks this week, who knows.</p>
<p><span id="more-3668"></span></p>
<p>Class 5A<br />
1. Tulsa Kelley (1)#5-0<br />
2. El Reno (2)#5-0<br />
3. Shawnee (3)#5-0<br />
4. McAlester (4)#5-0<br />
5. Tulsa Washington (5)#3-2<br />
6. Carl Albert (6)#3-2<br />
7. Tulsa East Central (7)#4-1<br />
8. Lawton MacArthur (8)#4-1<br />
9. Ada (9)#5-0<br />
10. Bixby (10)#2-3</p>
<p>After so much changing around last week, things remain exactly the same here. Two top 10 teams lost but I’ll defend Carl Albert and Bixby staying where they were, as both played close games with higher-ranked, undefeated opponents. Carl Albert lost by 3 to Shawnee and Bixby lost by 4 to undefeated No. 1 Tulsa Kelley. Carl Albert’s two losses have come to Tulsa Washington and Shawnee. Bixby has lost three times but those losses came to Class 6A No. 1 Jenks, Class 5A No. 1 Tulsa Kelley and Class 4A No. 1 Glenpool. I thin that’s a more impressive resume than Pryor’s 5-0 with close games against Skiatook (0-5) and Jay (3-2).</p>
<p>Class 4A<br />
1. Glenpool (1)#5-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (2)#5-0<br />
3. Weatherford (3)#5-0<br />
4. McGuinness (4)#3-2<br />
5. Douglass (5)#4-1<br />
6. Wagoner (6)#4-1<br />
7. Grove (7)#4-1<br />
8. Poteau (8)#5-0<br />
9. Star Spencer (9)#3-2<br />
10. Broken Bow (NR)#2-3</p>
<p>One change here with a couple teams losing. No. 4 McGuinness loses by a single point to No. 3 Weatherford on the road and No. 10 and previously unbeaten Tecumseh loses to No. 9 Star Spencer. McGuinness is easy to keep in the same position, although I did give consideration to flipping McGuinness and Douglass. Thought about leaving Tecumseh at No. 10 but the 40-0 blowout was too much to overlook. Fort Gibson and Muldrow were considerations but both lost big to top 10 teams this week. So Broken Bow re-enters the picture. Broken Bow’s three losses — Sallisaw, McAlester and Metro Christian — are all to quality opponents.</p>
<p>Class 3A<br />
1. Cascia Hall (1)#4-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#5-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Claremore (3)#5-0<br />
4. Madill (4)#5-0<br />
5. Checotah (5)#5-0<br />
6. Bethany (6)#5-0<br />
7. Metro Christian (7)#5-0<br />
8. Anadarko (9)#5-0<br />
9. Clinton (10)#3-2<br />
10. Blanchard (8)#4-1</p>
<p>Pretty straightforward here as the top 7 stay the same, Anadarko moves up to No. 8 after improving to 5-0 for the first time since the 1920s. Clinton moves up a spot and Blanchard drops two to No. 10.</p>
<p>Class 2A<br />
1. Lincoln Christian (1)#4-1<br />
2. Davis (4)#5-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (5)#5-0<br />
4. Lexington (7)#5-0<br />
5. Vian (6)#4-1<br />
6. Heritage Hall (8)#2-3<br />
7. Kingfisher (3)#3-2<br />
8. Millwood (2)#3-2<br />
9. Bridge Creek (9)#4-1<br />
10. Pawhuska (NR)#5-0</p>
<p>The big drop here is Millwood, who falls six spots to No. 8 after losing to Jones. Kingfisher also fell, four spots, to No. 7. Davis jumps up two spots to No. 2. Heritage Hall also moves up two spots. Pawhuska enters the rankings at No. 10 after Sperry’s loss to Verdigris.</p>
<p>Class A<br />
1. Okeene (1)#5-0<br />
2. Tonkawa (2)#5-0<br />
3. Ringling (3)#4-0<br />
4. Hennessey (4)#5-0<br />
5. Stroud (5)#5-0<br />
6. Commerce (6)#5-0<br />
7. Woodland (7)#3-2<br />
8. Talihina (8)#5-0<br />
9. Watonga (9)#4-1<br />
10. Oklahoma Bible (10)#5-0</p>
<p>No changes here as all of the top 10 won. Someone asked me last week about the possibility of dropping No. 1 Okeene and moving up No. 2 Tonkawa after Okeene needed overtime last week against Texhoma. I’ll be keeping an eye on those teams over the next few weeks but for right now, Okeene keeps the top spot.</p>
<p>Class B<br />
1. Garber (1)#5-0<br />
2. Canton (3)#5-0<br />
3. Laverne (2)#3-2<br />
4. Porter (4)#5-0<br />
5. Ryan (6)#5-0<br />
6. Fox (7)#4-1<br />
7. Kiefer (NR)#5-0<br />
8. Weleetka (8)#4-1<br />
9. Alex (9)#4-1<br />
10. Davenport (NR)#4-1</p>
<p>Another complicated one here with No. 5 Depew losing to unranked Davenport and No. 9 Alex beating No. 10 Allen. I dropped Depew out after its loss despite owning a win over No. 8 Weleetka earlier this season. Kiefer deserves to be in after beating Davenport in double overtime in the second week and staying undefeated. That was Davenport’s only loss so far.</p>
<p>Class C<br />
1. Shattuck (1)#5-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#5-0<br />
3. Temple (4)#4-1<br />
4. Seiling (3)#4-1<br />
5. Thackerville (5)#4-1<br />
6. Covington-Douglas (6)#3-2<br />
7. Deer Creek-Lamont (7)#5-0<br />
8. Maud (9)#5-0<br />
9. Claremore Chr. (NR)#4-1<br />
10. Boise City (NR)#3-2</p>
<p>EDITED: Temple and Seiling switch places near the top after Seiling loses to Timberlake 52-6. Maud moves up a spot to No. 8 with a win over Sasawka, who drops out. Claremore Christian makes its debut, as does Boise City. Sasakwa and Waynoka falls out. falls out.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Decided to sleep on this week’s rankings, especially with Tulsa Kelley’s upset over Tulsa Washington in 5A making me seriously rethink those rankings.</p>
<p>Class 6A<br />
1. Jenks (1)#4-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (2)#3-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#3-1<br />
4. Southmoore (4)#4-0<br />
5. Edmond North (6)#4-0<br />
6. Mustang (7)#3-1<br />
7. Norman North (8)#3-0<br />
8. Del City (5)#3-1<br />
9. Midwest City (9)#2-2<br />
10. Bartlesville (NR)#4-0</p>
<p>Not a whole lot of shuffling here with just two of the top 10 losing, and both of those dropping games to higher-rated teams. I dropped Del City three spots to No. 8 and moved Edmond North, Mustang and Norman North up a slot. Del City stays just above Midwest City, whose losses came to Southmoore and Del City. Bartlesville, which beat Muskogee 35-30 to improve to 4-0, enters the rankings for the first time. Considered leaving PC North ranked but looking at the teams they’ve beaten in the context of the first four weeks, Bartlesville appears to be the better candidate. Also thought about Lawton for that spot but the only win that stands out for them looking back at things is the win over Lawton MacArthur. But the Wolverines will get their chance to move into the rankings in a big way this week when they host Mustang.</p>
<p><span id="more-3416"></span></p>
<p>Class 5A<br />
1. Tulsa Kelley (9)#4-0<br />
2. El Reno (3)#4-0<br />
3. Shawnee (4)#4-0<br />
4. McAlester (10)#4-0<br />
5. Tulsa Washington (1)#2-2<br />
6. Carl Albert (2)#3-1<br />
7. Tulsa East Central (5)#3-1<br />
8. Lawton MacArthur (6)#3-1<br />
9. Ada (7)#4-0<br />
10. Bixby (8)#2-2</p>
<p>OK, here’s the one that gave me the most heartburn this week. The only team to lose was Tulsa Washington but their loss to Tulsa Kelley forced me to go through and rethink the entire rankings in 5A. Kelley moves up to No. 1 all the way from No. 9. The Comets’ overall resume is the most impressive. El Reno and Shawnee each move up a spot as Carl Albert, despite its 69-12 win over Capitol Hill, drops to No. 6 because of Washington’s loss. The Hornets beat Carl Albert handily in the season-opener. McAlester also makes a big jump. These rankings are likely to experience some wild shuffling in the next few weeks. Next week’s premier battle in the class comes with Carl Albert traveling to Shawnee. Tulsa Central fell to East Central but likely would’ve been ranked if any other ranked team had slipped up.</p>
<p>Class 4A<br />
1. Glenpool (1)#4-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (2)#4-0<br />
3. Weatherford (3)#4-0<br />
4. McGuinness (4)#3-1<br />
5. Douglass (5)#3-1<br />
6. Wagoner (6)#3-1<br />
7. Grove (7)#3-1<br />
8. Poteau (8)#4-0<br />
9. Star Spencer (NR)#2-2<br />
10. Tecumseh (NR)#4-0</p>
<p>The top 8 remain the same as all won in Week 4. Star Spencer moves back in the rankings and Tecumseh enters the rankings for the first time this season after a 4-0 start. It came down to Tecumseh and Fort Gibson for the last spot. Fort Gibson is 3-1 but has looked impressive since an opening-week loss to Sequoyah Tahlequah. Broken Bow and Muldrow fall out of the rankings. Broken Bow has lost three games in a row to really good teams they’ve got to prove they can play at that level. They’ve got Hilldale next week, then what should be a comfortable win over Tulsa Webster before finishing up with a brutal stretch that starts at Wagoner, then at Poteau, at home vs. Muldrow and finishing the season at home against Fort Gibson.</p>
<p>Class 3A<br />
1. Cascia Hall (1)#3-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#4-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Claremore (3)#4-0<br />
4. Madill (5)#4-0<br />
5. Checotah (6)#4-0<br />
6. Bethany (7)#4-0<br />
7. Metro Christian (8)#4-0<br />
8. Blanchard (9)#4-0<br />
9. Anadarko (NR)#4-0<br />
10. Clinton (4)#2-2</p>
<p>This is another one that took me a little while to decide how to rank the teams. Clinton obviously had to drop behind Anadarko after getting beat by the Warriors on Friday night (Even if Delans Griffin didn’t play). The big question was what to do about Clinton. It came down to Clinton, Newcastle, Dickson, Berryhill and Bristow for the last spot. Looking at all of the teams resumes, I eliminated Newcastle, Dickson and Berryhill. That left me with Bristow and Clinton. Both have played Chandler, with Clinton winning 28-0 and Bristow winning 7-0. That was partially the tiebreaker. I also still think Clinton’s going to be really good if Delans Griffin comes back healthy.</p>
<p>Class 2A<br />
1. Lincoln Christian (1)#3-1<br />
2. Millwood (2)#3-1<br />
3. Kingfisher (3)#3-1<br />
4. Davis (4)#4-0<br />
5. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (5)#4-0<br />
6. Lexington (7)#4-0<br />
7. Vian (6)#3-1<br />
8. Heritage Hall (8)#1-3<br />
9. Bridge Creek (9)#3-1<br />
10. Sperry (10)#3-1</p>
<p>The only change here to speak of is the flip-flop of Lexington and Vian after Lexington beat SeeWorth 62-8 and Vian lost to No. 5 Sequoyah-Tahlequah 49-28. I did seriously consider switching Kingfisher and Davis. I’m still not sure I made the right call on those two but I’m leaving them where they are for now.</p>
<p>Class A<br />
1. Okeene (1)#4-0<br />
2. Tonkawa (2)#4-0<br />
3. Ringling (3)#3-0<br />
4. Hennessey (4)#4-0<br />
5. Stroud (6)#4-0<br />
6. Commerce (7)#4-0<br />
7. Woodland (8)#2-2<br />
8. Talihina (9)#4-0<br />
9. Watonga (NR)#3-1<br />
10. Oklahoma Bible (NR)#4-0</p>
<p>Another difficult one here after OCS’ loss to Watonga on Friday night. The top four stayed the same, with 6-9 each moving up a spot. The newcomers this week are Watonga and Oklahoma Bible. Watonga’s only loss came to Class 2A No. 3 Kingfisher to start the season. Oklahoma Bible is undefeated, with a 15-0 win over Texhoma two weeks ago. Texhoma took No. 1 Okeene to triple overtime this week. OCS and Apache dropped out.</p>
<p>Class B<br />
1. Garber (1)#4-0<br />
2. Canton (3)#4-0<br />
3. Laverne (2)#3-1<br />
4. Porter (4)#4-0<br />
5. Depew (5)#3-1<br />
6. Ryan (10)#4-0<br />
7. Fox (6)#3-1<br />
8. Weleetka (7)#3-1<br />
9. Alex (8)#3-1<br />
10. Allen (NR)#4-0</p>
<p>A little bit of shuffling ere with Canton and Laverne traded spots. Didn’t give much thought to dropping Laverne lower (specifically below Porter) because I believe that B-1 is the toughest district around at the top. I still think Garber, Canton and Laverne are the top three teams in the class. Allen moves into the rankings.</p>
<p>Class C<br />
1. Shattuck (1)#4-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#4-0<br />
3. Seiling (3)#4-0<br />
4. Temple (4)#3-1<br />
5. Thackerville (5)#3-1<br />
6. Covington-Douglas (6)#2-2<br />
7. Deer Creek-Lamont (7)#4-0<br />
8. Waynoka (9)#4-0<br />
9. Maud (10)#4-0<br />
10. Sasakwa (NR)#4-0</p>
<p>The only ranked team to lose was Corn Bible, who fell to Tipton. Waynoka and Maud moved up a spot and Sasakwa into No. 10. Considered Tipton for that spot and will keep an eye on them but, for now, undefeated wins out.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Got the eight-man rankings added now. 6A, 4A and 2A could get shuffled a bit this afternoon depending on how the games come out.</p>
<p><strong>Class 6A</strong><br />
1. Jenks (2)#2-0<br />
2. Tulsa Union (1)#1-1<br />
3. Broken Arrow (3)#1-1<br />
4. Southmoore (6)#2-0<br />
5. Owasso (4)#1-1<br />
6. Del City (5)#2-0<br />
7. Edmond North (7)#2-0<br />
8. Mustang (8)#1-1<br />
9. Norman North (10)#1-0<br />
10. Midwest City (NR)#1-1</p>
<p>Obviously there could be some changes here by this afternoon depending on the outcome of Edmond North-Mustang but here’s an early look into Class 6A. Jenks and Union just switch spots. Close game, not any real thought to doing anything else. These clearly are the top teams in 6A. I jumped Southmoore ahead of 1-1 Owasso and 2-0 Del City. Gave a lot of thought to the order of those three. I think with Southmoore getting those players eligible this week, they vault into the not-quite-Jenks-or-Union group. Dropped Del City a spot not because of anything the Eagles did or didn’t do against Norman but more because of the Sabercats getting those guys this week. I moved Norman North up a spot since they were up 10-0 on Muskogee when that game was called. Yeah, who knows how it turned out but tonight’s results plus looking at Muskogee’s game last week against Owasso adds up to Midwest City in the rankings and Muskogee on the outside looking in. Lawton is simmering just outside the top 10 after an impressive win over Lawton Mac. PC North is there too. Could see Lawton moving into the top 10 if today&#8217;s game is a blowout either way.</p>
<p><strong>Class 5A</strong><br />
1. Tulsa Washington (1)#2-0<br />
2. Carl Albert (2)#1-1<br />
3. El Reno (3)#2-0<br />
4. Shawnee (8)#2-0<br />
5. Tulsa East Central (7)#1-1<br />
6. Lawton MacArthur (6)#1-1<br />
7. Duncan (9)#2-0<br />
8. Ada (10)#2-0<br />
9. Bixby (5)#0-2<br />
10. Tulsa Kelley (NR)#2-0</p>
<p>Very tough to figure out how to rank 5A this week after the top 3. Tulsa Washington beats Tulsa East Central handily after beating Carl Albert handily last week, Carl Albert takes care of Choctaw relatively easily, and El Reno hands Guthrie its first shutout in six years. Shawnee makes the big jump with its 46-19 win over Deer Creek. Tulsa East Central actually jumps up two spots with its loss because Lawton Mac lost to Lawton (I do think Lawton’s a near top 10 team in 6A but comparing East Central’s loss to BTW to Carl Albert’s left me thinking East Central is a top five team. Duncan and Ada move up a couple spots after moving to 2-0 with wins over Ardmore and Durant. Bixby is 0-2 but losing to Jenks and 4A No. 1 Glenpool isn’t anything to be down about. I contemplated leaving Guthrie in at No. 10 but the Bluejays lost to McGuinness last week, and then McGuinness got beat by Tulsa Kelley this week, so the Comets are in the top 10.</p>
<p><strong>Class 4A</strong><br />
1. Glenpool (1)#2-0<br />
2. Sallisaw (3)#2-0<br />
3. Douglass (4)#1-1<br />
4. Broken Bow (2)#1-1<br />
5. Wagoner (7)#2-0<br />
6. Weatherford (8)#2-0<br />
7. McGuinness (5)#1-1<br />
8. Grove (6)#1-1<br />
9. Star Spencer (9)#1-1<br />
10. Poteau (NR)#2-0</p>
<p>Broken Bow drops a couple of places after losing to Class 5A McAlester. Sallisaw and Douglass (for now) are the beneficiaries, though depending on the outcome of Douglass-Millwood later today, that could change. Wagoner and Weatherford move up two spots each after big wins. Grove and McGuinness drop down after losses, though to good teams. Poteau climbs into the rankings after Hilldale knocked off No. 10 Collinsville.</p>
<p>Post Soul Bowl thoughts: Douglass stays where they are. The Trojans defense, despite the bust late, is extremely fast. They gave Kevonte Richardson fits all day. And Antyoun Smith had an excellent game at QB as well. Douglass is going to be all right.</p>
<p><strong>Class 3A</strong><br />
1. Cascia Hall (1)#1-0<br />
2. Tuttle (2)#2-0<br />
3. Sequoyah-Claremore (3)#2-0<br />
4. Clinton (4)#1-1<br />
5. Purcell (5)#2-0<br />
6. Madill (6)#2-0<br />
7. Checotah (7)#2-0<br />
8. Bethany (8)#2-0<br />
9. Metro Christian (9)#2-0<br />
10. Blanchard (10)#2-0</p>
<p>Not a change here as everybody won but No. 1 Cascia Hall and the Commandos didn’t play. Checotah did do a number on rival Eufaula, though, with a 40-0 blowout. No serious threats either, so no change to worry about here.</p>
<p><strong>Class 2A</strong><br />
1. Lincoln Christian (1)#1-1<br />
2. Millwood (2)#1-0<br />
3. Kingfisher (3)#1-1<br />
4. Davis (4)#2-0<br />
5. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (7)#1-0<br />
6. Vian (7)#2-0<br />
7. Heritage Hall (6)#0-2<br />
8. Lexington (9)#2-0<br />
9. Sulphur (10)#1-1<br />
10. Bridge Creek (NR)#1-1</p>
<p>Could be some change at the top here later today depending on what Millwood does. Lincoln lost to a very good Arkansas team so dropping isn’t a given, but if Millwood wins big, I could (well, I will) flip. Sequoyah-Tahlequah also plays tomorrow. Heritage Hall drops another spot after dropping to 0-2 with loss to Weatherford. The Chargers are still going to be good, I believe, but 0-2 is 0-2. They did at least show some offense against a pretty good Weatherford team last night. Chandler drops out. Bridge Creek is the beneficiary, moving into the No. 10 spot with a 70-6 win over Bethel.</p>
<p><strong>Class A</strong><br />
1. Okeene (1)#2-0<br />
2. Tonkawa (2)#2-0<br />
3. Ringling (4)#1-0<br />
4. Hennessey (5)#2-0<br />
5. OCS (6)#2-0<br />
6. Stroud (8)#2-0<br />
7. Commerce (10)#2-0<br />
8. Woodland (7)#0-2<br />
9. Talihina (NR)#2-0<br />
10. Apache (NR)#2-0</p>
<p>Who knows when the last time Morrison wasn’t in the rankings. And I know going from No. 3 to out was pretty harsh but they lost to Barnsdall. Barnsdall was winless last year and I had them ranked No. 76 of 78 in the preaseason. So Morrison’s time in the rankings this time was short. Woodland dropped to 0-2 but stayed second because of the teams they’ve lost to. Apache and Talihina move into the rankings after impressive starts.</p>
<p><strong>Class B</strong><br />
1. Garber (1)#2-0<br />
2. Laverne (2)#2-0<br />
3. Canton (3)#2-0<br />
4. Weleetka (5)#2-0<br />
5. Porter (6)#2-0<br />
6. Depew (7)#1-1<br />
7. Fox (8)#2-0<br />
8. Alex (9)#1-1 LOST to Temple<br />
9. Watts (NR)#2-0<br />
10. Copan (NR)#2-0</p>
<p>There was some shakeup here as No. 4 Davenport and and No. 10 Geary both lost to fall out of the rankings. Davenport’s loss to Kiefer, a team I had No. 19 in the preseason rankings, caused it to drop all the way out. Geary lost to Cherokee, knocking them down a spot from the ranked. The biggest beneficiary was the other ranked team to lose — Alex. Alex was beaten 24-17 to Class C No. 4 Temple. I didn’t hold a loss to another ranked eight-man team against them the way I did Geary and Davenport’s to unranked teams. Watts and Copan join the rankings this week, and Ryan continues to look strong.</p>
<p><strong>Class C</strong><br />
1. Shattuck (1)#2-0<br />
2. Timberlake (2)#2-0<br />
3. Seiling (3)#2-0<br />
4. Temple (4)#1-1<br />
5. Thackerville (7)#1-1 Beat Duke, lost to Fox<br />
6. Covington-Douglas (6)#0-2 Lost to Seiling (12),lost to Garber<br />
7. Deer Creek-Lamont (8)#2-0 Beat Braman, beat Waukomis<br />
8. Corn Bible (9)#2-0 Beat Victory Life, Beat Merritt<br />
9. Waynoka (10)#2-0 Beat Sharon-Mutual, Beat Braman<br />
10. Forgan (NR)#1-1</p>
<p>The top four spots all remain the same as they all win, including Temple, who beat Class B ranked Alex after losing to Ryan last week. Thackerville jumps up a couple spots to five but more for what other teams didn’t do than for what they did. The blew out Duke, which is exactly what was expected of them. Covington-Douglas stays in the same spot despite dropping to 0-2. I still think they’re a No. 6 team, they’ve just had  abrutal early schedule that includes Class B No. 1 Garber and Class C No. 3 Seiling. Deer Creek-Lamont, Corn Bible and Waynoka all move up a spot each. Forgan is new to the rankings this week after beating up on Balko. Again, this is more based on what other teams didn’t do. Specifically Buffalo. I didn’t penalize Buffalo last week for losing to Laverne but they took a hit this week with a 34-26 loss to Tyrone. Boise City was also given consideration but they lost to No. 1 Shattuck this week (Although losing to Shattuck 48-24 isn’t anything to be ashamed of).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eight-man will have to wait another day as my eyes are about to slam shut but here&#8217;s Class 6A-A with a short explanation with each class.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Class 6A<br />
1. Tulsa Union (1)#1-0</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">5. Del City (11)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">6. Southmoore (6)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">7. Edmond North (10)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">8. Mustang (9)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">9. Muskogee (8)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">10. Norman North (13)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Rankings review</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I take a little different approach when formulating rankings. I don’t drop teams every time when they lose. Never understood why a No. 10 team who lost to a No. 1 team had to drop. That’s why you’ll see Broken Arrow moved up a notch in 6A despite losing to Tulsa Union. The Tigers lost in a close game and couldn’t see jumping Owasso (who’s without its regular starting QB) or Southmoore (who struggled to run the ball in its opening win) over Broken Arrow. I struggled with how to order the bottom part of the rankings. Del City’s win was huge so I jumped them ahead of winners Southmoore, Edmond North and Mustang. There were flaws with each of those team’s wins (although I don’t hold North’s against them as much as the other two, since it was a rivalry game). We’ll see some more shaking out in the next couple weeks with some big matchups. Midwest City might still be a top 10 team by the time it’s all said and done. Along with the Bombers, Putnam North and Lawton are bubbling right outside the top 10.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Class 5A Rankings</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">1. Tulsa Washington (1)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">2. Carl Albert (2)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">3. El Reno (5)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">4. Lawton MacArthur (6)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">5. Bixby (4)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">6. Guthrie (3)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">7. Tulsa East Central (7)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">8. Shawnee (8)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">9. Duncan (11)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">10. Ada (12)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">It was tough at the top of 5A with Nos. 2, 3, 4, 9 and 10 all losing. In the end, I decided to keep Carl Albert at No. 2 because I can’t see jumping El Reno or Lawton MacArthur up over the Titans right now. And El Reno win next week would give serious consideration to a jump. Lawton Mac’s win was certainly impressive and the Highlanders could also be moving up with continued wins. I just think Tulsa Washington is heads and shoulders above everyone else in the class right now. It’s hard to judge just where Bixby and Guthrie are right now but we’ll find out soon enough. I don’t drop teams just because tey lost but Guthrie’s offense worries me and Bixby got hammered so I wasn’t hesitant of dropping them behind El Reno and Lawton Mac. Tulsa Kelley and Deer Creek are just outside the top 10, as is Ardmore and Coweta.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Class 4A</span></span></strong></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">2. Broken Bow (2)#1-0</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">6. Grove (7)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">7. Wagoner (8)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">8. Weatherford (9)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">9. Star Spencer (4)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">10. Collinsville (10)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">With just one team in the top 10 losing, the only real question here is how far does Star Spencer fall with its big loss to Millwood. The answer winds up being to No. 9 from No. 4. No. 1 Glenpool’s win wasn’t overly dominant but the Warriors are still No. 1. The others ahead of Star Spencer all had big wins, either in blowout fashion or in McGuinness’ and Weatherford’s cases, wins over highly regarded opponents. Poteau and McLoud are hanging around just outside the rankings.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Another relatively stable class, with Clinton the only top 10 team with a loss. Figured they’need to go fall under at least Tuttle and Seq.-Claremore. Elgin and Newcastle ate just outside the top 10.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Class 2A</span></span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">1. Lincoln Christian (2)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">2. Millwood (3)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">3. Kingfisher (5)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">4. Davis (6)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">5. Sequoyah-Tahlequah (7)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">6. Heritage Hall (1)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">7. Vian (9)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">8. Chandler (4)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">9. Lexington (13)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">10. Sulphur (8)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">Another class with some interesting dilemmas. How far does Heritage Hall drop? What about Chandler? Who fills out the bottom of the top 10? The answers: To 6th because their defense performed well yet they clearly have a ton of work to do on offense. Chandler drops four spots to eighth. Chandler should be significantly better by the end of the year but thhe Lions have to grow up quick. Sulphur stays in the top 10 in large part due to the rash of losses at the bottom and just outside the top 10.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Class A</span></span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">1. Okeene (1)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">2. Tonkawa (2)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">3. Morrison (3)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">4. Ringling (4)#0-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">5. Hennessey (6)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">6. OCS (7)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">7. Woodland (5)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">8. Stroud (9)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">9. Hominy (8)#0-1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">10. Commerce (12)#1-0</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I dropped Woodland down two spots after its 31-6 loss to No. 1 Okeene. Woodland’s going to be pretty good by season’s end but needs some ore consistency. Stroud and Hominy switch spots after Stroud beats Chandler and Cleveland beats Hominy.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Guthrie will go through its second an final pre-season scrimmage against Ada tonight at Jelsma Stadium. Guthrie coach Rafe Watkins is still trying to sort out who will be his starting quarterback among the three candidates in the competition. Watkins said he hopes to name a starter Monday, but added that doesn&#8217;t mean the other two won&#8217;t play during the early stages of the regular season, at the very least. Here&#8217;s what else Watkins wantsa to see out of the scrimmage.</p>
<p>1-Stay healthy: &#8220;We can&#8217;t afford to have anyone go down. We&#8217;re thin at an awfully lot of positions.&#8221;</p>
<p>2-Efficiency: &#8220;We need to be a little more efficient in what we do, especially on offense. You usually see improvement between that first and second scrimmage and we wil definitley need to make some improvement from our first scrimmage.&#8221;</p>

<p>Every coach I talked to before the proposed district realignments for the 2010-11 football seasons Wednesday was a little nervous/anxious about how everything would shake out.</p>
<p>But now that it&#8217;s over, it was a whole lot of much ado about nothing. Nobody I talked to seemed to be angry, just a whole lot of &#8220;eh.&#8221;</p>
<p>Everything will be finalized at an OSSAA board meeting Aug. 11.</p>
<p>Until then, some things that caught the Boneman&#8217;s eye from each class.</p>
<p>In 6A, it&#8217;s District 6A-3 that has me curious. Supposedly an &#8220;east&#8221; district, half the teams are teams us &#8220;westerners&#8221; are familiar with.</p>
<p>Norman, Putnam West, Shawnee and Southmoore are all in the district to go with Jenks, Broken Arrow, Muskogee and Sapulpa.</p>
<p>Intrigued by 5A-1. Carl Albert and Guthrie stay together, but you add in Deer Creek and El Reno. And as Antlers coach Grant Gower said: &#8220;It&#8217;s the Suburban Conference plus Southeast and Ada.&#8221;</p>
<p>Noble and Western Heights will also be in 5A-1.</p>
<p>The question in 4A was which team, Bishop McGuinness or Douglass, would be making the move from 4A-1 to 4A-2.</p>
<p>Your answer: Douglass. Essentially, the Trojans are just taking the spot vacated by Star Spencer&#8217;s move to 3A.</p>
<p>Good balance at the top with the Irish and Clinton in 4A-1 and Douglass and Glenpool together in 4A-2.</p>
<p>Thought 3A was actually pretty balanced. No &#8220;super&#8221; district, but still a &#8220;super&#8221; class. If you had to twist my arm, I&#8217;d say 3A-3 is the tops: Bethany, Centennial, Heritage Hall, John Marshall, Newcastle, Kingfisher and Justice Alma Wilson.</p>
<p>Actually seeing 2A laid out doesn&#8217;t look impressive. Who knows who will be good in two years, but seems like Millwood and Lincoln Christian should be fighting it out for a gold ball. Cupboard looks a little bare in 2A.</p>
<p>District A-7 is still the toast of the class. Tough to top a district with Morrison, Woodland and Hominy.</p>
<p>The 10-team districts in Class B are strange to look at. But if last year holds to form, look for B-1 to reign supreme. Garber, Laverne, Canton and Ringwood are just some of the stalwarts in that district.</p>
<p>And in Class C, will District C-4 start becoming a real threat? It seems that a lot of the teams from that district flame out early in the playoffs. There are a lot of the same names there, so it&#8217;ll be interesting to see.</p>
<p>Well, been a fun time in Tulsa but time to head back to Oklahoma City. Fellow chum Ryan Aber will be at the boys basketball games and the football game.</p>

<p>Remember how I wrote Monday was kinda slow? Well, not so much Tuesday. Knew it was a good sign when the first couple of coaches I saw Tuesday were of the football variety.</p>
<p>It didn&#8217;t slow down all day, and there were a lot of interesting news and notes from Day 2 of the coaches clinic in Tulsa.</p>
<p>A lot of the discussion is surrounding the re-districting (which will happen Wednesday at 3 p.m., for those wondering).</p>
<p>Purcell coach Mike Wilson said the fact there are 57 teams in the &#8220;super&#8221; 3A is going to really put a strain on scheduling.</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re looking at seven-team districts and that is going to cause a problem,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s a poor way to split it up, but we&#8217;ll find out.&#8221;</p>
<p>Another interesting fact comes from &#8220;my boy&#8221; Grant Gower of Deer Creek. Apparently, the Antlers can&#8217;t stop growing.</p>
<p>Deer Creek&#8217;s ADM has it right in the thick in 5A at just under 900 students. Gower told me Deer Creek will have 966 students this year.</p>
<p>Not only that, but plans for more elementary and middle schools are underway. It wouldn&#8217;t shock him if a few years from now, Deer Creek is up in 6A.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a good point, but the problem right now with Deer Creek is the football stadium is of a 3A quality. And the press box, well, let&#8217;s not even go there.</p>
<p>&#8220;That thing would survive the second coming,&#8221; Gower said. &#8220;Nothing can tear that down.&#8221;</p>
<p>Either way, sounds like a real exciting time to be a part of the Deer Creek family.</p>
<p>Moving to Edmond North, and it&#8217;s tough to get that smile off of head coach Jeremy Dombek&#8217;s face right now.</p>
<p>After a disappointing 4-6 season (and losing its final two games to miss out on the playoffs), Dombek thinks this is his best squad since coming to the Huskies.</p>
<p>And why not? With Joe Aska and Qua&#8217;Don Henderson touching the ball and on the field at the same time, don&#8217;t be surprised to see Edmond North in the conversation in 6A.</p>
<p>Aska and Henderson didn&#8217;t see much time together on the field last year, but that won&#8217;t be the case this year.</p>
<p>And it doesn&#8217;t stop defensively as cornerback Xavier Smith has committed to Missouri. Smith enters the season as one of the best. He&#8217;s going to be a three-year starter and Dombek said there&#8217;s not much more Smith can do at this point in terms of learning the position.</p>
<p>Going east, had a chance to check up with McLoud and Eric Cardin. The Redskins are going to be hurting. Can&#8217;t believe the names Wayland Moore, Cody Phipps and Cody Ferrell won&#8217;t be there anymore.</p>
<p>Dillon Endecott, a DE-turned-QB, is going to lead the way.</p>
<p>McLoud is also the home of the ever-growing powerlifting championships and will be again this spring.</p>
<p>Cardin said 124 schools participated last year, and the numbers keep going up because some of the larger schools are now getting into it. The small schools have always been on board.</p>
<p>Wednesday will, of course, be busy with the districts but also hoping to see some more basketball coaches. Not too many around thus far.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>And if you know me, you know I was at tennis Tuesday night. The Boneman is in awe of how beautiful the Case Tennis Center at the University  of Tulsa is.</p>
<p>Wow.</p>
<p>Players of the year: Andrea Lewis, Bishop Kelley, and Duncan Fugitt, Edmond Memorial. Coach of the year: Skip Griese, Ada.</p>
<p>Had to check up on my summer stars. Putnam North&#8217;s Chris Haworth and Heritage Hall&#8217;s Julie Labarthe, Sarah Bowen and Carissa Villaflor are all doing well, according to their coaches.</p>
<p>I could watch Bishop McGuinness&#8217; Katelyn Connelly and Lewis play all day. What a good match for the supposed &#8220;exhibition.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lewis won, 8-6, but I had to keep reminding myself to walk around and talk to people instead of just being camped out there.</p>

<p>The tennis season is over and so too is the speculation about all the rankings. Duncan coach Phil Barnes has passed along to me both the final boys and girls rankings as decided by the Oklahoma Tennis Coaches Association.</p>
<p><strong>Girls</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. Bishop McGuinness</strong>: No surprise here. The Irish won their 11th straight title and totally deserve the honor. If this was an AP football/basketball poll, girls would receive all first-place votes.</p>
<p><strong>2. Bishop Kelley</strong>: Won three straight titles before McGuinness came along in 5A and denied it. Andrea Lewis and Meredith Burns don&#8217;t have to take a back seat to anybody, and it was a joy to watch them play.</p>
<p><strong>3. Duncan</strong>: Yep, when I said 5A was top-heavy all season, wasn&#8217;t kidding. First three teams are from the class. Melanie Barnes will anchor the crew next season.</p>
<p><strong>4. Heritage Hall</strong>: Three and four are tough. Only because I&#8217;ve seen Heritage more would I flip &#8216;em. The 4A champs will have Julie Labarthe back, Carissa Villaflor grew tremendously as a player this season while Sarah Bowen might end up being one of the most athletic players the state has seen.</p>
<p><strong>5. Edmond North</strong>: And here is your 6A champ. Rachel Mitcham will return at No. 1 singles and Huskies should be knockin&#8217; on the door again.</p>
<p>6. Jenks<br />
7. Edmond Memorial<br />
8. Broken Arrow<br />
9. Cascia Hall<br />
10. Shawnee</p>
<p>Only change in my rankings would be Chargers at No. 3 and Duncan at No. 4. That&#8217;s it, pretty fair assessment of the season by the rankings committee.</p>
<p><strong>Boys</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. Putnam North</strong>: 6A was the cream of the crop in the boys and no team was better when it mattered most than David Diefenderfer&#8217;s Panthers. Chris Haworth&#8217;s goal: back-to-back-to-back undefeated seasons.</p>
<p><strong>2. Union</strong>: Almost as dominating as Haworth, No. 2 singles player Trevor Horstmann couldn&#8217;t be touched. Add in some great drama in the doubles play, and Union didn&#8217;t relinquish its four-year reign without a fight.</p>
<p><strong>3. Bishop Kelley</strong>: Cruised to third straight 5A championship. One more year of Cale Hammond means good times for tennis fans and bad news for the rest of 5A.</p>
<p><strong>4. Cascia Hall</strong>: Getting to be as dominant as McGuinness girls. Commandos are a well-oiled machine and Chase Tomlins will be going for that rarity of being a four-time champion next season.</p>
<p><strong>5. Edmond Memorial</strong>: A sentimental favorite as I feel no team progressed from the beginning of the year to the end like Bulldogs. Randy Mays will still have a lot of weapons at his disposal next season.</p>
<p>6. Edmond North<br />
7. Metro Christian<br />
8. Ada<br />
9. McGuinness<br />
10. Heritage Hall</p>
<p>Based on familiarity again, would switch McGuinness and Ada. Already looking forward to next season as so many teams were so young this season that next year can&#8217;t help but provide even more drama.</p>
<p>Speaking of drama, time for the All-City Team. A little more research, but like I said, pretty confident with the selections.</p>

<p>When it came to Class 5A in the boys state tennis tournament, my only question like I said was whether or not Bishop Kelley would sweep in earning its third straight title.</p>
<p>The Comets were denied at No. 2 singles by Jonathan Kraft of Bishop McGuinness, but that&#8217;s it.</p>
<p>Because of time constraints and everything going on at once, didn&#8217;t really get a chance to watch the No. 1 final of Cale Hammond vs. Evan McElwain of Booker T. Hammond won easier than I thought he would, too. Hammond is a special talent, for sure.</p>
<p>Tulsa Kelley winning wasn&#8217;t a shock, but I&#8217;ma say McGuinness tying for second was.</p>
<p>There are those that think Vicki Connelly isn&#8217;t that great of a coach because of the talent the girls have (think the Phil Jackson comparison in the NBA), but Connelly did a fantastic job this weekend with that boys team.</p>
<p>They played better than I&#8217;ve seen from them all year, and she kept Kraft&#8217;s head in the game after losing the second-set tie-breaker to Brennan Fox of Bishop Kelley.</p>
<p>The epic Union-Norman North doubles match just concluded, and I went right over to watch the third set of Kraft-Fox.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll tell ya, you look at Kraft and think there is no way he is going to do anything to you. The No. 2 doubles team of Ryan Randolph and Jake Brown could almost step on the kid (maybe that&#8217;s too far), but Kraft showed the mental toughness of a senior in his freshman frame.</p>
<p>That third set was a thing of beauty (6-0), and his teammates were loving every minute of it.</p>
<p>Kraft and teammate John Byrne will definitely be on my radar all next season.</p>
<p>There&#8217;ll be a lot of votes for Donte&#8217; Foster of Guthrie for being the best athlete in the state (deservedly so), but don&#8217;t overlook Randolph.</p>
<p>Quarterback for the football team, forward on the basketball team and a better-than-you-think tennis player. Wasn&#8217;t able to grab any more gold balls this year but placed second in all three team sports and placed third with Brown at No. 2 doubles.</p>
<p>Also really impressed by the mental toughness of Carl Albert. The Titans had every right to wither away and mope around after losing Austin Manger to a broken arm.</p>
<p>They fought hard every step of the way.</p>
<p>And Ada, the team the Boneman forgot. Skip Griese did an outstanding job this season of getting the best from his group of kids. Three thirds and a fourth was a best-case scenario for the Cougars.</p>
<p>Predicted Bishop Kelley, Booker T and McGuinness. Actual finish: 1. Bishop Kelley; 2. (tie) McGuinness, Ada; 4. Booker T. Didn&#8217;t realize the Hornets weren&#8217;t going to have a No. 1 doubles squad.</p>
<p>Academic achievement award goes to Tahlequah&#8230;again. This is the fifth year in a row and the fifth year of the GPA being 4.0.</p>
