The struggles and triumphs of area public schools have been a frequent topic in The Oklahoman through the years. Here are a few of those stories: (Note: Some of the coaches, athletes administrators featured have moved on since the stories were originally written.)

Northwest Classen off to hot start

Sept. 2012  —  None of the players on this year’s team was alive the last time Northwest Classen was 2-0. That was 20 years ago, when the Knights opened with wins over Northeast and U.S. Grant before losing to Capitol Hill.

State Rep. Richard Morrissette brings in Joe Washington to motivate Capitol Hill football team

Oct. 2011  —  After watching Capitol Hill’s 52-0 loss to Ardmore on Oct. 13, Oklahoma State Rep. Richard Morrissette decided he’d had enough. He arranged for the team to tour the state capitol building on Thursday and got Oklahoma legend Joe Washington to speak to the players.
Putnam City West food pantry strives to help high school students battling hunger

Sept. 2011  —  Then-Putnam City West football coach John Jensen, along with fellow coaches, established a small pantry for athletes after noticing a problem of hunger and injuries among players.

U.S. Grant faces an uphill climb in Class 6A

Aug. 2011  —  U.S. Grant is the only Oklahoma City Public School (or Tulsa Public School) in Class 6A. A school with all the challenges of the inner city – large dropout rates, often lack of parental involvement, minimal community support – faces one well-established football program after another. Lawton High. Mustang. Edmond North. Westmoore. Putnam City.

High school coaches know instilling pride is key to turning around a program

Aug. 2011  —  Several of the city area’s struggling football programs have new coaches this season, with new enthusiasm for turning their team around. But most of them seem to know that coaching isn’t among their primary tasks in building a winning football team at places such as Western Heights, Northeast, Northwest Classen, Capitol Hill or U.S. Grant.

Star Spencer’s championship game win over Douglass a night of hoping and believing

Dec. 2009  —  Star Spencer beat Douglass 34-21 in the Class 4A state championship game Saturday night, giving Oklahoma City Public Schools its first football title in 14 years. In a class with perennial powers Weatherford, Bishop McGuinness and Glenpool, the gold trophy is going home with one of the forgottens. One of the schools with inferior facilities and little hope.

The Pride of OKC: Douglass and Star Spencer will meet in a state title game

Dec. 2009  —  In both the Douglass and Spencer communities, people are excited. Not only are the teams playing for the state title, but they’re playing against each other — which is the first time in state football playoff history that two Oklahoma City Public Schools’ teams have met in a championship game. Now, for the first time since John Marshall won the 1995 Class 5A title, the Oklahoma City Public Schools is guaranteed of having a state football champion.

The Future of Athletics for OKCPS

Aug. 2009  —  District athletic director Phil Ingersoll has a plan to make OKC schools more competitive in football.

Home disadvantage for OKCPS teams

Aug. 2009  —  As a football player in the Oklahoma City Public Schools, Ken Berry doesn’t envy the things that other teams have. That might surprise those outside the inner-city schools, but the district has increased its commitment to football and upgraded uniforms, equipment, even facilities in recent years. The locker room that Berry and his teammates use is only a couple years old, thanks to MAPS for Kids, while the No. 22 jersey that the standout linebacker will wear on Friday nights is only a year old. Berry wants for nothing. Except wins.

Coaches at Oklahoma City Public Schools face big hurdles

Aug. 2009  —  Terrell Love admits it won’t be an easy job. The new football coach at U.S. Grant understands the challenges that lie ahead if he’s to help turn the Generals around.

They open the football season against Capitol Hill at Star Spencer (Centennial’s home stadium) tonight at 7, and they do so without their head coach, Mark Ryan. He continues to battle an illness that has kept him away from his team for the last month. The Bison will take the field under acting head coach Michael Baldwin and a group of assistants — mostly volunteers — in hopes of building on the athletic success the young school got to enjoy in basketball season.

What to watch for: Centennial

Some of the Bison’s top returners transferred out, so this team is putting a lot of youngsters into action. But they had a solid showing at the All-City Preview, getting to the consolation final. This is a team that just needs to keep moving forward right now.

There’s no timetable for coach Ryan to return, so Baldwin just has to keep them focused on the present. Judging by what I saw at practice, the Bison have a few guys with good size to play up front, and plenty of speed at the skill spots, which is worth a lot in a game like this.

What to watch for: Capitol Hill

The Redskins are under the guidance of first-year head coach Jason Webster, who was promoted from offensive coordinator. He’s a young guy who has been at a variety of places and has a clear passion for leading young people.

He has a mostly new staff, but they were able to keep a group of athletes committed to getting better over the summer. This game will be important for showing the direction of his new program.

The pick: Capitol Hill 20, Centennial 18. This kicks off six games in 10 days for me, and I don’t plan on seeing any blowouts.

The Knights took third place in a loaded field at the Edmond Open over the weekend, with T’aries Taylor leading the team in scoring in two of the three games.

Taylor scored 26 in the opener against Tulsa Central and followed it up with 19 in the third place game against Lawton Mac to earn all-tournament honors at the Edmond Open.

With Taylor providing a reliable scoring option alongside point guard Jamil Donovan, the Knights will be a team to watch in Class 5A this season. At 5-1 on the season, NWC is up to No. 4 in this week’s rankings.

Other contenders

Delford Robinson and Michael Ervin, Millwood: Robinson led the Falcons in scoring twice at the Millwood tournament, including 14 in the opener. Ervin had a team-high 12 in the third-place game, an 18-point win over Capitol Hill.

Nico Meadows, Capitol Hill: Meadows had 24 points against US Grant as the sophomore continues to make an early impact for the Redskins.

Tona Edwards and Brianna Pendleton, Northeast: Edwards had 25 against Centennial and Pendleton had 19 in a win over Putnam City. Edwards had 15 against PC and scored 22 of the team’s 35 against Carl Albert. Pendleton led the team with 17 in the championship loss to Del City.

Sharane Campbell and LaKeitha Watson, Star Spencer: Campbell, an OU signee, had 25 in a win over John Marshall and 17 to help Star take third at the Millwood Invitational. Watson had a team-high 20 in the third-place game.

Meshelle Parker, Northwest Classen: Scored 19 points in a win over Classen last Tuesday.

Dayla Threat, Millwood:  Averaged 17.5 points over four games last week, helping the Falcons to a runner-up finish at their own tournament.

So let’s take a look at what some of the OKC schools face as we get ready for the start of district play:

Millwood (3-0)

It’s going to be a while before the Falcons face a team as good as what they’ve seen the last two weeks in Douglass and McGuinness. Those are two of the best teams in 4A, and none of the competition in 2A-2 is going to exceed that.

Jones (Week 6) and Lexington (Week 10) are a couple of big games to look ahead to, but with easiejr competition, the key for the Falcons will be making sure not to let their guard down. They’ve got the talent to win every game they play. It’s just a matter of staying focused.

Week 4: The new seven-team districts in most of A-3A have led to some scheduling craziness. Millwood closes out the preseason portion of its schedule at Alva Friday night, then opens 2A-2 play at home against Luther the following week.

Douglass (1-2)

After finally getting into the win column, the Trojans are heading into district play on a high note. And in terms of west-side districts, 4A-2 is much more favorable than 4A-1, which has teams like McGuinness, Elgin, Elk City, Cache and Woodward. The Week 9 meeting with Glenpool (the two teams are 4 and 5 in the rankings this week) could be for the district title.

Though Douglass won last week, there was some difficulty, with coach Willis Alexander sending his starting QB, Shon Bridges, and RB, Aliston Cobb, to the bench at one point. But I’d expect Alexander to get everything sorted out.

Week 4: The Trojans open district play with a visit from Tecumseh, which lost 35-13 to Deer Creek last week. The Antlers hit some big plays with the run, so look for Douglass to try the same thing.

Star Spencer (0-3)

I paid a visit to Star Spencer practice on Monday, and there’s some sense of relief in the arrival of district play. After battling through a difficult preseason, the Bobcats are ready for a fresh start.

And district action gets off to a fast start, too. Friday’s game at home against Chandler pits the two teams who were viewed as the preseason favorites in 3A-4. Perkins is a team that has looked good in the first three weeks, and the Bobcats go there in Week 6.

Star gets its break from district action in Week 9 with a game against Victory Christian.

Week 4: As I said, it starts with Chandler this week. No one in the district is currently ranked in the 3A top 10, and these two teams would like to change that.

Southeast (3-0)

Michael Branch has his team off to a great start, but as we’ve discussed before, the Spartans are in possibly the toughest district around. Two top-three teams await in Guthrie and Carl Albert, as well as No. 7 Deer Creek. The move of Jay Gogue to running back seems to have inspired the running game, and the defense has been solid all year.

I won’t be surprised to see this team step up and upset someone at some point during the season.

Week 4: The district action begins with Ada coming to Southeast this Friday. This could be a more important game than it seems right now. These two teams could be battling for the final playoff spot in this district if things go well for Southeast.

John Marshall (2-1)

As expected, the Bears have been strong on defense so far this year. Even in their loss to Cache, they still only gave up 15 points. They’re stuck in a challenging district, with Heritage Hall, Kingfisher, Bethany, Newcastle and Centennial. So with opponents like that, a good defense will come in handy.

The question will be whether the young offense can come along and put up enough points to win some big games.

Week 4: The Bears open with Bethany Thursday night at Taft Stadium. It should be a good test for the JM defense. Bethany brings a balanced offensive attack with QB Ryley Claborn and RB Devin Campbell.

Centennial (2-1)

No sense in waiting around, and that’s the case for Centennial, which opens district play with one of the hottest teams in the state, No. 3 Heritage Hall.

It’s a tough district, and there are a couple of key games waiting in next few weeks, with games against Newcastle and John Marshall. Both of those games will go a long way toward separating the middle of the district. The Bison are one of the teams who got stuck with Week 10 as its district off week. They’ll close out the season against 2A Hennessey.

Week 4: The opener against Heritage Hall on Friday night will be a big test for the Bison defense, which struggled to slow down Anadarko — certainly no shame in losing to a team like the Warriors, but like Anadarko, Heritage Hall has a strong running game that few have been able to slow down.

Other OKC teams

US Grant opens district play Thursday night with the suddenly scary Putnam City Pirates, who are 3-0 and routed Choctaw last week… Capitol Hill begins district action against one of 5A’s best teams, Duncan, on Thursday… Northeast, also in 2A-2 with Millwood, will try to build on last week’s success in its district opener against a Lexington team that has earned its spot in the top 10… Altus visits Northwest Classen on Friday night for the 5A-2 opener.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

Last week: Southeast knocked off Star Spencer 27-14. Capitol Hill edged rival US Grant 13-12.

Why Southeast could win: The Spartans are riding a wave of motivation after the 2-0 start, and Jay Gogue is a big reason why. The QB/RB/DB has been making plays all over the field, no matter what position he plays. He had a 59-yard TD run that sparked last week’s victory, and the defense was even better, allowing only 48 total yards.

Why Capitol Hill could win: QB Derrick Jefferson is the key to a solid backfield with pass-run capabilities. He has some weapons at receiver as well. The Southeast offense seems to be in a good flow, so it will probably take more than 13 points to win this week. Still, the Redskins have the talent to move the ball and score some points.

Quote: “Our defensive line played well last week and that gave our linebackers opportunities to make plays. We’ll need to do that again this week, because Capitol Hill has some good athletes and the quarterback throws the ball well.” – Southeast coach Michael Branch

Key matchup: Southeast run game vs. Capitol Hill run-stoppers. The Redskin defense had trouble slowing down US Grant’s run game last week and will need to step up in that area to take down another southside rival. Gogue’s position swapping in the backfield is an effort to get more out of the run game, and Gogue is the team’s best option there. Whichever spot he’s playing, he’s dangerous with his feet and the ‘Skins will have to keep tabs on him.

The pick: Southeast 30, Capitol Hill 20. The district schedule is going to be extremely tough for Southeast, but this is a team that has shown it is ready for the challenge. Making the playoffs will be a chore, but the Spartans are definitely moving in the right direction this year.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

It was hard enough narrowing the field down to three guys, and that’s why Millwood quarterback Kevonte Richardson and receivers/defensive backs Brandon Swindall and Josh Turner must share the honor of Oklahoma City Player of the week.

Richardson threw for nearly 400 yards and four touchdowns while rushing for 40 more yards and a score. Turner had five catches for 117 yards, including grabs of 32 and 27 yards on the final drive, the latter accounting for the game-winning touchdown. And Swindall had five receptions for 161 yards and three scores, with his shortest catch of the day going for 19 yards. Oh, and he had the game-saving tackle at the 1-yard line on the final play of the 36-31 victory.

So, yeah, they were kind of a big deal on Saturday.

A few other Millwood players who earned recognition Saturday: Nose guard Stanford Rice, linebacker Larry Seals and receiver Dametric Sanders, who had a 79-yard TD catch.

And Douglass had their share of playmakers, too. RB Aliston Cobb had 202 rushing yards and three TDs, and Diontay Washington running behind a powerful offensive line all day. DeVante McKinney was stirring up trouble at defensive end. Erik King and the linebackers were running to the ball well. QB Shon Bridges made his share of plays, though he wishes he could’ve picked up one more yard on that last play. And Marcus Caddell who made several plays, including a 90-yard kickoff return TD that kept the Trojans in the game in the third quarter.

Other POW contenders

Jay Gogue, QB/RB, and Micah Hunter, QB, Southeast football: The Spartans are 2-0 with Gogue leading the way. He has played quarterback and running back this season as coach Michael Branch looks for the best way to utilize his dangerous runner.  Hunter threw a TD pass in Thursday’sd 27-14 win over Star Spencer, helping keep the Spartans from becoming one-dimensional.

Christian Gorham and Terry Arnold, Northwest Classen football: Gorham threw five touchdown passes, hitting Arnold for three of them, on his way to a 279-yard performance on just 12-of-19 passing. Arnold pulled in scoring catches of 15, 23 and 21 yards, and also returned a kickoff 86 yards for a score as Northwest edged Northeast 40-34.

Trevyone Willis and Michael Thomas, Northeast football: Thomas threw a touchdown pass to Willis and caught another himself in the tough loss to NW Classen. Willis had the 22-yard TD catch and rushed for TDs of 20 and 37 yards.

Nico Durham and Tyrone Jones, Centennial football: Durham and Jones combined for all three Bison touchdowns in Friday’s loss to Anadarko.

GaVonte Bonds, US Grant football: Bonds rushed for 116 yards on 14 carries against Capitol Hill.

Why Centennial can win: The backfield looks to be a strength for the Bison. Coach Mark Ryan has some options back there, starting with Nico Durham. Coming off a playoff appearance last season and moving up to Class 3A this season, it’s an interesting season for the Bison.

Why Capitol Hill can win: The Redskins are much farther along in their understanding of Montana Lyons’ plans and expectations in the coach’s second season, and a strong group of seniors led by quarterback Derrick Jefferson. They’re building depth, and that could be a difference maker.

Key matchup: Centennial RBs vs. Capitol Hill LBs. Linebacker is one of the strengths for the ‘Skins, with Junior Zavala and Fred Taylor leading the charge in a unit with a good combination of size and speed. If those guys play well and contain the Bison backs, it should be good news for Capitol Hill. If Centennial can establish the run, it will go a long way toward knocking off its Class 5A opponent.

The pick: Capitol Hill 21, Centennial 20. This shouldn’t suggest that Centennial won’t be a good team. I just think Lyons is making some significant progress at Capitol Hill. The senior class seems to have a strong motivation to avoid another 0-10 season.

As expected, the midfielder leads the team in assists. But he has done more than set up the forwards, he also leads the team in scoring with 18 goals. The senior’s goal tally is 13 more than the second-leading scorers, David Medrano and Luis Preciado.

Becerra, who was The Oklahoman’s All-City runner of the year as a sophmore, has helped Santa Fe South to a runner-up finish in cross country as well as the title in soccer.

Santa Fe South is ranked No. 1 in 4A and has a 9-2 mark. The Saints’ regular-season finale is April 27 at home at 8 p.m. against Classen SAS.

The Oklahoma City Player of the Week is shared by John Marshall’s Steven Bay, Keyair Bolden, Emmanuel Denson, Elijah Gill, James Green, Keene James and the other members of John Marshall’s boys relay teams.

Those athletes all won events at Saturday’s Rock Creek Invitational in Sulphur, helping the Bears dominate the event in beating second-place Tecumseh 217-82 in the overall standings.

Bay and Denson won multiple events. Bay won both the 3,200 and 1,600 meter runs, while Denson won both the 300 and 110 hurdles.

James won the 100-meter dash as the Bears swept the top three spots in the premier event, with Bolden coming in 0.05 seconds behind and John Marshall’s Delante Scroggins finishing third.

Bolden on the 200, Gill won the 400, Green won the 800 and the Bears won the 400, 1,600 and 3,200-meter relays.

Others:
Zekeria Chism, Temisha Shoals and Jordan Smith, John Marshall: The trio each won events in helping the Bears complete the sweep at Sulphur. Shoals win the 200, Chism the 400 and Smith the long jump.

Deandre Vick, Douglass: Vick won both the 110 (15.39) and 300 (41.30) hurdle events at last Tuesday’s meet at Shawnee’s Oklahoma Baptist. His wins played a big part in the Trojans winning the meet, beating out Millwood 117-107.

Wisby, Douglass: Wisby won both the 200 (25.16) and 400 (59.04) at last Tuesday’s meet at Shawnee’s Oklahoma Baptist.

After offseason surgery, Anderson has come back to become one of the favorites in Class 5A at 215 pounds.

In last week’s regionals, Anderson pinned Deer Creek’s Alex Christensen at 3:50 to win the region and earn the West’s No. 1 seed.

At the state tournament beginning Friday, Anderson (30-3) will start off his quest for a title against Grove’s Weston Culvey.

Anderson’s brother, Antwan, was a state champion wrestler for Capitol Hill.

Look after the jump for other Oklahoma City players who turned in impressive performances in the last week.

Sharane Campbell and Dejrah Payton, Star Spencer: The pair teamed up to score 52 points in the Bobcats’ win over Bristow on Friday. Campbell scored 28 and Payton added 24.

Jazer and Jemuel Duran, Southeast: The sophomore duo each qualified for the 5A state wrestling tournament. Jazer (24-6) qualified at 125 pounds and will start the tournament against Grove’s Zach Housley while Jemuel (24-2) qualified at 130 pounds and will begin the tourney against Tulsa East Central’s James Duncan.

Tavion Fleeks and DeAndre Prince, John Marshall: Fleeks (19) and Prince (25) combined for 44 points in the Bears’ 85-27 district win over Santa Fe South on Friday. The duo helped turn what was a close game through one period into a blowout as John Marshall outscored the Saints 26-2 in the second.

The Oklahoma City player of the week is Douglass’ Marquis Buxton-Hill.

Hill scored 22 and pulled down 12 rebounds in the Class 4A No. 1 Trojans’ 84-73 win over Star Spencer on Saturday night.

After the win, Buxton-Hill said he believed the Trojans were the best team in the state regardless of class and it’s hard not to agree with him right now.

The Trojans will enter the playoffs undefeated and Buxton-Hill is a huge reason why.

Adeshola Adebayo, Southeast: A perennial part of this list, Adebayo averaged 27 points per game for the Spartans in three wins last week. Adebayo scored 30 against John Marshall, 29 against the Wichita Defenders and “just” 22 in a win over Centennial on Tuesday.

**Graduated last year, currently enrolled at Kansas State

Earlier tonight, I talked to Star Spencer standout Sharane Campbell and one of the things I asked her about was the layoff that most teams around the city area have gone through over the past week.

“I’m ready to get back to playing,” Campbell said.

Campbell said since her team hasn’t been able to practice this week, she’s spent as much time as possible at a local gym, although not nearly as much as she’d like to.

Oklahoma City schools figure to be back in action Friday. Most of the games canceled last Friday will be made up Saturday with the exception of Star Spencer-Douglass. That game will be played Feb. 13 at Northwest. That’s not unusual for those teams to meet in the Knight’s gym. Last season’s second regularly scheduled game between the two was also played at Northwest.

Friday’s schedule:
Centennial at Northwest
Douglass at Capitol Hill
Northeast at Southeast
Star Spencer at Millwood
U.S. Grant at John Marshall

I normally don’t do this, but I’m tired and I know the paper was short on space and most of this didn’t get in. So here are the bare bones (no pun intended) look at the Deer Creek Invitational.

But of course, here are the scores.

Panthers make it four in a row

The Bruce Gray Invitational may be at Deer Creek, but it’s been dominated by Putnam City North.

For the fourth year in a row, the Panthers are the champions as PC North took out Mustang 76-50 in the championship Saturday night.

“We feel like this is our home away from home,” tournament MVP Armon Provo said. “We knew it would be tough to bounce back after last night, but we play our best on that third day of the tournament.”

Mustang, the No. 8 seed, made the championship because of its great shooting from the perimeter, but the Broncos didn’t make their first three until third quarter.

The Broncos got to within 50-41 early in the fourth before the Panthers put it away.

Joe Summers scored 20 points while Devin Harris had 19 for PC North. Jacinto Biorato led Mustang with 13 points.

Jets take third

Western Heights went on a 15-2 run in the fourth quarter lead the Jets to a 46-37 win against Capitol Hill for third place in the Bruce Gray Invitational at Deer Creek.

D.J. Taylor scored nine of his 12 points in the fourth quarter for Western Heights, who trailed by seven at halftime.

Capitol Hill’s Trevon Grant had 17 points while Alton Whittaker had a team-high 13 points for Western Heights.

Star downs Enid in shootout

It was a consolation championship game played at a championship level as Star Spencer defeated Enid 74-65 in overtime at the Bruce Gray Invitational at Deer Creek.

Star’s Deontae Thomas and Enid’s Chris Fitzpatrick each hit seven 3-pointers in the game. Fitzpatrick finished with 28 points while Thomas had 26. Kendre’ Talley poured in 24 points for the Bobcats.

Girls

Antlers claim first crown

Despite the proud tradition of Deer Creek girls basketball, the team had never won its own tournament.

That changed Saturday night.

Deer Creek’s Jasey Jackson hit the game-winning free throw with 24.6 seconds left to give the Antlers a 46-45 victory against Putnam City North in the championship of the Bruce Gray Invitational.

“We wanted to break the streak,” coach Totsy Manning said. “We’re excited because the girls have worked so hard for this.”

The Panthers had two shots for the win in the final 4.9 seconds but couldn’t convert.

Alexis Watson led PC North with 13 points while Jalyn Jackson had a game-high 17 points, including 14 in the first half.

Irish bounce back

McGuinness coach Jennifer Frakes challenged her team to stop Star Spencer star Sharane Campbell.

The Irish rose up to the challenge in a 52-44 win against the Bobcats to claim third place in the Bruce Gray Invitational at Deer Creek.

“We mixed it up on her (Campbell). We had guards on her and post players. Kamber McMaster and Mary Beth Canfield were on her almost the whole game and did a great job,” Frakes said.

Campbell finished with nine points after scoring 54 points in the first two games. McGuinness was also able to make some shots after shooting 6-for-53 on Friday night. Alexa Lienhard had a game-high 17 points for the Irish.

***

Much more coherent thoughts Sunday. Also shot video with Deer Creek’s Jasey Jackson and Putnam North’s Armon Provo, the tournament’s MVPs.

A miracle comeback falls just short, and the last game of the night once again provides fireworks are the highlights of Day 2 of the Bruce Gray Invitational at Deer Creek.

But first, your scores and schedule.

Deer Creek 54, Star Spencer 52 (Girls)

This is your late comeback that was thwarted. Midway through the fourth quarter it was 51-35 Deer Creek. I, and probably 99 percent of the people in the gym, thought the game was over.

That’s how good Star’s Sharane Campbell is. She put the team on her back and said ‘c’mon, let’s go.’ Campbell was sensational, scoring 28 points.

She scored 21 in the second half and that was 21 of the team’s 27 points in the half. It was incredible. Thought I was witnessing another ‘holy cow’ moment.

Deer Creek’s A.J. Miller ended up scoring the game-winning bucket with around 10 seconds left and Star never got a shot off. There was a lot of contact and Campbell stumbled to the ground as the horn sounded.

Miller had 19 points for Deer Creek while Jasey Jackson came up huge with 14 points.

The Antlers will look to do what they’ve never done before: win their own tournament when they play the Panthers for the championship.

Putnam North 58, Capitol Hill 53 – OT (Boys)

I thought I had another winner in the video department when CH’s Trevon Grant went up for the potential game-winner. It was great out of bounds play that fell just short.

The Redskins seemed a little deflated after that and PC North executed well in the fourth quarter and overtime to walk away with the win.

CH simply didn’t have any legs left in OT as everything was coming up short. The Redskins also missed a lot of crucial free throws.

For the Panthers, a nice balanced effort with Devin Harris, Joe Summers and Armon Provo leading the way.

PC North plays upstart Mustang in the championship. On Tuesday, it was PCN 85 and Mustang 67. What will it be Saturday night?

Other observations

- The Bishop McGuinness girls didn’t improve their play and PC North took advantage. Arianne Hunter was huge on defense and Jhonita Smith was big down the stretch.

- Where did this Mustang team come from? Jacinto Biorato and David Glidden have been amazing in the first two days. Big starts have keyed things, but the Broncos have shown great composure.

- Star and Deer Creek boys had a pretty good one. All drama was taken away by Star’s Kendre’ Talley who was 14-for-16 from the free throw line. But yet another fun one with the Antlers.

- Weird to think it will be DC and OCS for seventh place. Both teams haven’t played poorly, but I guess that’s just the way it goes, huh?

- For those that don’t know, I’ve been tweeting with all final scores and any pertinent updates on Twitter.

- Pumped up for what should be good championships with PC North vs. Deer Creek (girls) and PC North vs. Mustang (boys).

All good things come to those who wait, right? Well, I arrived at Deer Creek at just past 9:30 a.m., and I got what I was looking for right around 10 p.m.

A great final game between Western Heights and Deer Creek highlights Day 1 of the Bruce Gray Invitational Tournament.

First, the scores.

Western Heights 46, Deer Creek 44

If you weren’t there to see D.J. Taylor’s game-winning three with 1 second left, shame on you. I kid, but you can watch it on NewsOK as I was there and videoed the thing.

As soon as he let it go, I thought it was good. However, Deer Creek wasn’t done as Jurrell Calloway’s heave from half court hit off the back of the rim (that, too, is on NewsOK).

Whew, lemme catch my breath for a minute.

Deer Creek obviously isn’t the best team ever, but man, are they fun to watch? This is just another great Antler game I’ve seen this year.

Western Heights came out early and led 21-12, but the Antlers went on a 22-6 run and looked like they were in control.

However, the Jets had tremendous composure in the fourth quarter and rallied for the win. Taylor ended up with 13 points while Hayden Wagner had 15 points for Deer Creek.

Fun game.

Mustang 74, Star Spencer 65 (Boys)

No, don’t adjust your computer screen, the score is correct. It took a miracle 3 by Taylor to bump this from being the headline and newsmaker of the day.

The Broncos just came out firing. Jacinto Biorato put ‘em up 7-0 before you could even blink. When the Bobcats finally contained Biorato, David Glidden stepped up.

He’s just a freak of an athlete, and those types can do special things. He ended up with 24 points and said the win was huge to the team’s confidence because they learned how to finish a game off.

Star got it down to 63-61 and looked like it would pull off a big come-from-behind victory but not to be.

My first time seeing Kendre’ Talley, and yeah, he’s good (23 points). Really enjoyed watching him work and penetrate. Weird to think Star/Deer Creek (my predicted semifinal) is a losers’ bracket game. Dems the breaks, I guess.

Other observations

- The Bishop McGuinness girls will have to play much better if they plan on playing for the championship. Senior Lissy Fuller was enough on this day vs. Putnam West, but the Irish will need to pick it up.

- Who means more to their respective Star Spencer team, Talley or Sharane Campbell? She leads this team in just about every way possible and had 26 points.

- Enid’s Chris Fitzpatrick can shoot from ANYWHERE in the building, but it wasn’t enough as Capitol Hill was so sound and executed. But really, you should try to watch Fitzpatrick shoot.

- Putnam North girls showed heart in turning it around in the second half. I still think the Irish get ‘em, but the Panthers will be ready to fight.

- OCS and Putnam North’s first half was one of the best I’ve seen this year, tied at 33-33. But the Panthers have so many options and can hurt you in so many ways that they overpowered the Saints in this one. Junior Armon Provo (18 pts) is going to be one to watch.

- Freshman Ashley Gibson might not have to wait too much longer before she starts to become the ‘it’ player on the loaded Deer Creek girls squad. That’s a nasty group with Gibson, A.J. Miller and Kelsey Glover leading the way.

- And one more time, what an ending with the Jets and Antlers. How will Western Heights build off of this and can Deer Creek bounce back?

- Good food, good company, ready for Day 2. Thought I would head to Edmond Memorial and North on Friday, but looks like camping out at Deer Creek is what I’ll be doing. I could think of worse things to be doing.

While fellow chum Ryan Aber will continue his Tournament Tour all week, yours truly will pretty much be camped out at Deer Creek this weekend.

I’ll take a break Friday night to attend Edmond Memorial and North, but other than that, I’ll be livin’ it up with the Antlers.

Here are your girls and boys pairings.

Thursday
Girls
Bishop McGuinness vs. Putnam West, 10 a.m.
Putnam North vs. Western Heights, 4 p.m.
OCS vs. Star Spencer, 1 p.m.
Deer Creek vs. Enid, 7 p.m.

Boys
Star Spencer vs. Mustang, 11:30 a.m.
Deer Creek vs. Western Heights, 8:30 p.m.
Enid vs. Capitol Hill, 2:30 p.m.
Putnam North vs. OCS, 5:30 p.m.

Not in chronological order because wanted to show that the winners of the pair of games will be the ones that play each other in the semifinals.

Boneman’s Prediction: I’m going to say the Deer Creek girls beat the McGuinness girls in the championship because of that strong home crowd advantage. And then the Star Spencer boys edge out Capitol Hill in the boys final. If you know my track record, I wouldn’t take too much stock in anything I say.

There might’ve been a state tournament feel to the finals of the All-City Athletic Conference basketball preview on Thursday night at Northwest and it’s not hard to see why.

In the boys championship game, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that Star Spencer-Douglass could be a preview of the 4A title game in a few months.

It certainly looked like it could’ve been in the preview. Star Spencer, the defending 4A champions, won 25-24 over Douglass. While each team lost some key players, both teams returned some stars as well, led by Star Spencer PG Kendre Talley and Douglass’ big inside presence Marquis Buxton-Hill.

On the girls side, there was a bit of a surprise as Northeast outlasted Millwood in the title game 18-16.

If you’re a basketball fan and looking for a game fix this weekend, check out Northeast on Saturday night. Two teams that could be state contenders in their respective classes face off when Northeast hosts Metro Christian. The boys game is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.

Championship: Northeast 18, Millwood 16

Northwest will meet Douglass and Southeast will play Star Spencer in the semifinals and I’m thinking Douglass and Star will meet in the championship but it’s hard to count out teams coached by Walter Brewer (Southeast) and Leroy Combs (Northwest).

On the girls side, no real surprises there. It’ll be Douglass-Millwood and Northeast-Star Spencer for the championships. The guess here is Millwood-Star Spencer in the championship.

Others
Keon Johnson, Star Spencer: Johnson played a big role in the Bobcats pulling off a fourth consecutive shutout, beating Seminole 22-0. Johnson had a big tackle on fourth and goal, intercepted a pass in the end zone and broke up two more passes near the goalline. 

Terrance Olds, Star Spencer: Olds had 107 yards and two touchdowns, including a 63-yarder on the game’s first play.

Darwin Rideau, Star Spencer: However he decides to spell his name, Rideau is a force for the Bobcats. Thursday night against Seminole, Rideau had 192 yards on just 11 carries, including a 96-yard touchdown run.

CROSS COUNTRY
Ricardo Trejo, U.S. Grant: Trejo took first in the Capitol Hill meet last Monday, finishing with a  time of 16.59. 

Others
Enrique Benetiz, Southeast: Benitez finished second to Trejo at Capitol Hill. 

Laurence Kirhendell, Millwood and Anthony Lofton, Centennial: Both qualified for state, with Kirhendell finishing 9th and Lofton 19th at the 3A regional at Chisholm.

Jennifer Nunez, Capitol Hill: Nunez finished sixth on the girls side of the Capitol Hill meet with a 12.53.

VOLLEYBALL
Victory Kappel, Southeast senior outside hitter: The team’s most reliable and best all-around player all season, and the biggest reason Southeast was able to get to the state tournament.

FOOTBALL

The Oklahoma City player of the week is Brendon Jordan, Jordan scored three touchdowns, threw for two and kicked a pair of extra points in John Marshall’s 39-14 win over Fairview. The Bears are 4-1 and look to have a shot at making the playoffs for the first time since dropping down from 5A to 2A. If they do, no doubt Jordan will be a big part of that. He’s a versatile threat for John Marshall.

Others

Kevin Forbes, Douglass: Forbes ran for three touchdowns, including a 57-yarder, in the Trojans’ 55-6 win over Southeast.

Terrance Olds, Star Spencer: Olds ran for 145 yards and two touchdowns in Star Spencer’s 40-0 win over previously unbeaten Tecumseh.

Kevonte Richardson, Millwood: Richardson ran for a touchdown and threw for two in Millwood’s 35-28 loss to Jones.

Darren Rideau, Star Spencer: Rideau ran for 178 yards and two touchdowns in Star Spencer’s 40-0 win over Tecumseh.

CROSS COUNTRY

Ricardo Trejo, U.S. Grant: Trejo ran a 17:49 in last week’s All-City Conference Championships to win the individual title and help the Generals win the team title.

Others

Jennifer Nunez, Capitol Hill: Nunez ran a 13:24, nearly 40 seconds ahead of the second place finisher, to win the girls individual title at the All-City meet.

Linebacker Corey Mitchell, Aaron James and Jason Stoner are among the players who will be held out.

“It this was a playoff game, they all would be playing,” Alexander said. “We just wanted to be cautious. It’s not just about tonight. It’s about the whole season.”

When: 7:30 p.m. Tonight

Where: Moses F. Miller Stadium

Capitol Hill

Why the Redskins can win: Montana Lyons has taken over Capitol Hill and had to start building the program from the ground up. It’s clear his players are buying into the things the coaching staff there is implementing. Clearly, the Redskins enter as the underdog but with some of Douglass’ injuries, Capitol Hill could surprise.

Quote: “Capitol Hill is going to be better than what people think. Coach Lyons is doing good things over there,” Douglass coach Willis Alexander.

Douglass

Why the Trojans can win: Douglass is going to contend for not only their district title but also the Class 4A title. They’ve got a few players sitting out tonight but still have the depth to overpower the still-overmatched Redskins. Capitol Hill is heading in the right direction but they don’t have the firepower yet to hold up against Douglass.

Quote: “We’re ready to get out there and play. It’s time,” Alexander said.

Key matchup: The most interesting this to watch tonight might be the performances of Douglass’ two quarterbacks. Antyoun Smith took control last season and beat out Shon Bridges for the starting job but Bridges hasn’t been so quick to go away this year. Alexander said he was sticking with the rotation of the two for now.

“I’m going to stay with it until I get a feel for what I want to do,” Alexander said. “Sooner or later, we’re going to need both, though.”

The pick: Douglass 41, Capitol Hill 14. You might notice this is a slight change from what I had in the paper this morning (Douglass 41, Capitol Hill 12). I forgot Capitol Hill was a soccer school and likely wouldn’t have as big of a problem with extra points. I do think the Redskins are heading in the right direction but they’ve got a heck of a hole to climb out of. It can be done, though. Douglass has turned around greatly since Alexander arrived from John Marshall a few years ago. Douglass, though, is already there and I figure they’ll come out with a relatively comfortale win before the challenges of the next couple weeks (Millwood next week and Star Spencer to close non-district play).
