The Baltimore Orioles said last month they would not bring up phenom Dylan Bundy to the majors in September, preferring to send him to their Florida instructional league team instead of injecting the 19-year-old into the thick of a pennant race.

Wednesday morning, a night after Baltimore used  eight pitchers in an 18-inning win over Seattle, the Orioles relented and called Bundy to the majors, according to Fox Sports’ Ken Rosenthal.

Bundy was 9-3 with a 2.08 ERA across three levels this year, rising from Class A Delmarva to high-A Frederick to Double-A Bowie.

Bundy is still nearly two months away from his 20th birthday. If he makes his debut this season, he’d become the 19th Oklahoman to debut in the big leagues before their 20th birthday, according to a search on Baseball-Reference.com.

Here’s a list of the youngest players from Oklahoman to make their debuts. When Bundy debuts, he’ll fall just above Ed Baecht on the list.

Southeast quarterback Micah Hunter says the Spartans are having more fun this year and hope it will translate in to success.

As they try to improve on last year’s three-win season, the Southeast Spartans are working hard on defense, and they’re enjoying themselves while they do it.

With some experienced linemen and linebackers, as well as a speedy secondary, the Spartans will count on the defense to control games, especially early in the season.

Coach Michael Branch’s squad has a pair of returning linebackers, Gumaro Murphy and Ray Douglass, playing behind a defensive line that includes Michael Holder and Miguel Uribe.

“We’ve got a pretty good defense,” Uribe said. “I would say the defense is a little ahead of the offense right now. We have a lot of people with speed and talent.”

And that defense is making for some fun times on the field, says Micah Hunter.

“We’re having a lot more fun this year,” he said. “We’re not just out here practicing. We’re enjoying it. The scrimmage was fun. We were flying around, hitting people in the mouth and everybody had fun with it.”

Hunter has gained valuable experience playing quarterback. Now a junior, he has a good core of talented players around him and simply hopes to run the show efficiently.

“We could be pretty good,” Hunter said. “We have a lot of talent, a lot of speed and height. We look pretty strong. We’re pretty balanced. We have a strong running attack and good receivers. I plan on giving the receivers some good throws this year. I’ve had this offensive line with me since I came in as a freshman. I trust them.”

NOTE: Read more of my interview with Micah Hunter in Friday’s edition of The Oklahoman, which will include area-specific special sections for each of the metro area’s circulation zones, providing information on all of the city’s high school football teams. Our statewide season preview will be in Sunday’s Oklahoman.

The Wes Welker Foundation’s board of directors have approved $29,000 in grant money to four Oklahoma City-area schools, the organization announced Monday.
The grants were awarded to Star Spencer’s volleyball and athletic department, U.S. Grant’s football program, Putnam City West’s football and athletic department and Crooked Oak’s athletic department.

The foundation, founded by former Heritage Hall and current New England Patriots standout Wes Welker, was founded five years ago with the aim of helping underprivileged kids.

The foundation awards grants twice a year to schools and organizations in the Oklahoma City area. It also provides free sports camps for at-risk youth and a coach and leadership development program.

The foundation has given more than $192,000 in grant money in the past four years.

U.S. Grant is a two-time recipient.

Other organizations that have received the grants in the past have included Life Change Academy, Astec Charter School, Douglass High School, Memorial Park Boys and Girls Club and Western Village Academy.

First Team:
Dorrian Williams – Douglass, Stephen Clark- Douglass, Ramond Jenkins- Douglass, Romond Jenkins- Douglass, Tre Jordan- Southeast

Second Team:

Ben Smith was an All-State player at Southeast in 2008.

Southeast boys basketball coach Walt Brewer will make sure all of his players are watching the NIT championship game tonight to see former Spartan Ben Smith in action for Wichita State.

The Shockers will take on Alabama at 6 p.m. tonight on ESPN (Cox 29).

Smith graduated from Southeast in 2008, where he was an All-State selection before heading to Northern Oklahoma College. Wichita State signed him after two seasons at the Enid junior-college.

The 6-foot-5 swingman left NOC as the school’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder, and he has made a quick impact at Wichita State, which played Alabama in the NIT finals Thursday night.

Smith was named the team captain of the Missouri Valley Conference All-Bench Team — essentially the sixth man award — after averaging nearly nine points per game in conference play. He shot 39.1 percent (34-of-87) from 3-point range for the season.

“(Smith) said New York is crazy, but he was having fun,” Brewer said. “It’s been great watching him. I love watching our former players at the next level.

“When our players go on to have success, I use them to motivate our current guys to let them see what can be accomplished if you keep working.”

Del City vs. Yukon, 7 p.m., championship

4:05 p.m.: The Mustang girls have a 22-point lead on Southeast in the girls third-place game with just under two minutes left to play. More exciting, however, we’re running pretty well on time after a dreadfully long day yesterday that ended around midnight.

5:07 p.m.: After holding a 10-point halftime lead, Putnam City West has started the second half fast and leads 54-35 on Carl Albert midway through the third quarter in the boys third place game.

5:15 p.m.: One thing we’ve learned this week: PC West is for real. They didn’t get lucking in a couple big wins. This is a good basketball team. Kyndall Dudley has hit six 3-pointers. He and Dante Lewis could each go for 20 in this game. The Pats are up 21 as we near the end of the third quarter.

5:40 p.m.: PC West takes third in the boys tournament with an 82-67 win over Carl Albert. Dante Lewis finished with 28 and Kyndall Dudley had 25 for the Pats. The girls title game is a few minutes away.

6:07 p.m.: Northside leads Yukon 8-4 at the end of the first quarter.

6:24 p.m.: Impressive run by the Millerettes gets them a brief lead late in a wildly exciting, fast-paced second quarter, but Northside finishes strong for a 21-17 advantage at the break.

6:50 p.m.: Big third quarter from Northside for a 39-22 advantage heading into the fourth.

7:14 p.m.: Northside takes the girls title, 54-32, over Yukon. The boys title game between Yukon and Del City will get going in about seven minutes.

Here is your girls All-Tournament team: Whitney Dunn, Mustang; Mackenzie York, Yukon; Jade Hardy, Yukon; Mannasha Bell, Northside; Taylor Green, Northside; MVP: Chauntel Terry, Northside.

7:40 p.m.: The first quarter goes to Yukon with a 15-10 advantage on Del City. Yukon’s D’Anthony Perkins has shown he is as athletic as just about any guard in the city area.

7:55 p.m.: A late rally for the Millers gives them a 25-21 edge at halftime. Del City led 21-18 with under two minutes to play in the half.

8:16 p.m.: Del City keeps scoring, and Yukon keeps answering, particularly with 3-pointers — one apiece from Shon Willilams, D’Anthony Perkins and Matt Burton, while Jordan Brown added a three-point play inside. Yukon leads 43-33 after three quarters.

8:32 p.m.: Yukon pulled out to a 49-38 lead, but seven straight points from the Eagles has it down to a four-point game with just over three minutes left to play.

8:47 p.m.: It came down to free throws, and the Millers held on for a 55-52 win.

Boys All-Tournament Team: Kyndall Dudley, PC West; Steffon Herd, Del City; Brett Cannon, Del City; Shon Williams, Yukon; Jacob Koontz, Yukon; MVP: D’Anthony Perkins.

For the Millers, this will be their first time playing for a tournament championship since the current seniors were freshmen.

“It’s gonna be good,” said senior guard Shon Williams, who led the Millers with 16 points Wednesday. “We’ve been working hard, working together for the last four years. We think we can win this, so we’re gonna go out and try our hardest to play well and se if we can win it.”

Added coach Ralph Nigro: “I think it means a lot (to play for a title). We have seven seniors and they’ve been through some bad times. Last year, we won, what, five games? The year before, we won six. So it means a lot to them. I’m happy for them. I’m happy to see them smiling and winning. It’ll be a tough game tomorrow, though.”

Mike Nicholson had 13 points for Yukon, while D’Anthony Perkins and Matt Burton added 10 apiece and Jacob Koontz had nine. Kyndall Dudley led the Patriots with 15 points and Dante Lewis added 14. Kevin House had 11, hitting three of the Pats’ eight 3-pointers.

Updates below…

4:55 p.m.: Today’s winners so far are the Northwest Classen and Putnam City West girls, who will meet in the fifth-place game Thursday at 11:30 a.m. Midwest City’s boys rolled past Guthrie and Ardmore is up on Southeast 33-26 midway thorugh the third quarter.

5 p.m.: Ardmore standout Nino Jackson is sitting out again today. When I spoke to coach Mark Wilson after the game Tuesday night, he expected Jackson to play today, so I’ll see what the situation is after this game concludes. Ardmore leads 42-32 at the end of the third quarter.

5:15 p.m.: Southeast coach Walt Brewer already had one guard out with a broken foot and he lost another in Tuesday night’s game, so he has had to turn to 6-foot-5 forward Trai Jordan as one of his primary ball-handlers — and he’s doing well. It’s a tough situation for a team with a lot of talented pieces to work with. They’ve got good outside shooters, led by William Brewer, and (when he’s in the paint, not at the point) a strong post presence with Jordan. A floor general with handles is all this team really needs to make a significant jump.

5:57 p.m.: Word out of the Ardmore locker room was that Nino Jackson’s absence today was related to an illness that had him feeling pretty bad at morning shoot-around. Ardmore won by 15. Yukon has an eight-point lead on Southeast in girls winner’s bracket action right now.

6:35 p.m.: Yukon holds a 37-21 advantage on Southeast in the girls semifinals entering the fourth quarter. More stout defense today from Kelly Clarke’s Millerettes.

7:37 p.m.: Mustang trailing Fort Smith-Northside 25-16 late in the first half. We’ll need a Bronco rally if we’re going to get Canadian County Bedlam in the Ardmore final. Of course, the two teams play in Yukon next Tuesday anyway.

8:27 p.m.: FS-Northside up 16 with under a minute left to play, so it’ll be Northside vs. Yukon in the girls final Thursday night at 5:30. We should be underway with the 7 p.m. boys game between Del City and Carl Albert in 15 minutes or so.

8:56 p.m.: Del City grabs the early 13-7 lead on Carl Albert at the end of the first quarter. Six points for Anthony Holland for the Eagles.

9:19 p.m.: Carl Albert pulled back in it to give us a tight one at the break. Del City is clinging to a 25-23 lead. Dondre Brookins has three 3-pointers for the Titans and Holland has nine points for the Eagles as well.

9:50 p.m.: Del City extends its lead to 39-30 at the end of the third. Del City freshman Brett Cannon had a pair of big buckets in the third and has 11 points for the game.

10:05 p.m.: CA and DC all tied up with two minutes to play.

10:15 p.m.: The Eagles take the Mid-Del battle, 52-46. Anthony Holland finishes with 14 points to lead the way. Yukon and PC West are about to get started in our final game of the night.

10:54 p.m.: Yukon takes a 28-18 lead on PC West to halftime. Del City is waiting for the winner in the finals, set for Thursday night at 7 p.m.

Updates below…

2:30 p.m.: Shola Adebayo scored 20 of Southeast’s 34 points on the way to a win over Lawton. The Yukon girls played some good defense down the stretch to hold off a NWC rally. Jade Hardy led Yukon with 17 points. Meshelle Parker had 11 for the Knights and Alysia Whitaker added 10. We’re nearing halftime in the first boys game, where PC West is hanging with Midwest City, trailing 24-23. Cortrael Colbert already has 13 for the Bombers.

2:40 p.m.: PC West closes the first half with a 15-4 run to take a 27-24 lead at the half on Midwest City. Kyndall Dudley leading the Patriots with 12 points.

3:35 p.m.: PC West pulls off the upset, 70-62. Kyndall Dudley hit a pair of huge 3s down the stretch and finished with 24 points. Tavionne Pennon added 16, spoiling Cortrez Colbert’s 27-point outing for the Bombers.

4:12 p.m.: Speedy first half from Yukon and Guthrie. The Bluejays lead 13-10 at the break.

4:53 p.m.: The Millers pull away in the fourth for a 41-34 win. It’ll be Yukon and PC West at 8:20 Wednesday night in the boys semifinals.

5:20 p.m.: Not pretty in the third girls game of the day. Fort Smith-Northside leads PC West 20-2 after one quarter.

6:13 p.m.: Northside takes it 69-30 over PC West. The final girls game of the night, Ardmore vs. Mustang, is just a couple minutes away.

7:10 p.m.: Mustang girls out to a 50-20 lead midway through the third quarter. A win would put Mustang against Fort Smith-Northside Wednesday. Yukon faces Southeast in the first semifinal at 4:20 p.m.

8:20 p.m.: Ardmore and Carl Albert tied at the half, 33 apiece. Nino Jackson has not seen the floor for Ardmore so far.

8:45 p.m.: Carl Albert takes a 45-44 lead to the fourth quarter on top-ranked Ardmore.

9:32 p.m.: Sorry for the delayed update, but Carl Albert pulled off the upset of No. 1 Ardmore, 66-59. Ardmore standout Nino Jackson was held out of action by coach’s decision. He is expected to play in Wednesday’s loser’s bracket game against the Del City-Southeast loser.

9:55 p.m.: Del City boys out to a 30-14 lead on Southeast in the final game of the night.

10:38 p.m.: Del City finishes off the night with a 54-35 win over Southeast. We’ll do it all again tomorrow.

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.

Looking good

Douglass (6-2, 5-0)
Remaining games: vs. Glenpool, vs. Cleveland
Prognosis: Win this week and it’s all over. Douglass will sew up the 4A-2 title with a win against Glenpool on Friday. That would put them against the No. 4 from 4A-1, where Woodward and McGuinness are currently tied.

Millwood (8-0, 4-0)
Remaining games: at Northeast, at Lexington
Prognosis: One more win is all it will take to assure the Falcons of a district title and a playoff opener against the No. 4 seed from 2A-1 (right now it would be OCS or Tonkawa). Of course, that’s not what they’re chasing. Their goals are focused in December.

Barely hanging on

Northwest Classen (1-7, 1-4)
Remaining games: at Durant, at Lawton MacArthur
Prognosis: Must win out and get some help. The Knights are sitting in seventh one game behind a three-way tie for the fourth spot.

Northeast (2-6, 1-3)
Remaining games: vs. Millwood, at Jones
Prognosis: The good news is the Vikings could win twice and potentially get in. The bad news is they have to play the two best teams in the district the final two weeks.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

Carl Albert (4-1) vs. Southeast (3-2)
When: 7:30 p.m. Thursday
Where: Speegle Stadium

Carl Albert (L – BTWashington, W – Ardmore, W – Duncan, W – Western Heights, W – El Reno)
Why the Titans can win: Because as is the norm with a Gary Rose-coached club, this team is rounding into form at the right time. The lines are dominating play. The defense is creating turnovers. And the passing game came alive in a rout of El Reno last week.

Southeast (W – US Grant, W – Star Spencer, W – Capitol Hill, L – Ada, L – Deer Creek)
Why the Spartans can win: After two bad losses, Southeast wants to show they’re better than they’ve looked. I’d look for Michael Branch to have the Spartan D flying to the ball this week. Running back Jay Gogue is among the best in the state in yards per carry at 12.6.

Boneman’s key matchup: CA passing game vs. Southeast secondary. This, again, is probably a game that the Titans can win on the ground and be just fine. But with the MEGA showdown with Guthrie looming, you want your offense to be clicking on all cylinders.

Scott’s key matchup: CA offense vs. Southeast defense. The Spartan defense is in bad need of a turnaround after two rough weeks in which they gave up 110 total points.

Boneman’s pick: Carl Albert 52, Southeast 9. Titans aren’t overlooking Michael Branch’s boys heading into battle with Bluejays. Look for a big night from Kenton Whittington.

Scott’s pick: Carl Albert 44, Southeast 21. The Spartan defense has been knocked back on its heels the last two weeks and the Titan offense is heading upward. Hard to pull off an upset with those two trends in play.

Boneman’s CA prediction record: 5-0.

Southeast (3-1, 0-1) at Deer Creek (2-2, 0-1)
When: 7:30 p.m. Friday
Where: Antlers Stadium

Southeast (W – US Grant 39-6, W – Star Spencer 27-14, W – Capitol Hill 31-6, L – Ada 41-0)
Why the Spartans can win: This is a team that believes it belongs in the playoff race. They still have some depth issues and most of their key players are going both ways. But the defense is strong and the offense has guys who can make plays.

Deer Creek (W – Piedmont 35-14, L – Shawnee 33-26, W – Tecumseh 35-14, L – Guthrie 41-7)
Why the Antlers can win: Because they’ve made the necessary adjustments to playing without Colten Sander. They woke up in the second half of the loss against the Bluejays. And if they’re going to have hopes for a playoff berth, this is as close to a must-win as you’ll see.

Quote:

The second half we saw a lot of good things and started to play the way we can. We need to build off of that, and we’re going to be OK.” – coach Grant Gower

Scott’s key matchup: Southeast RB Jay Gogue vs. Deer Creek linebackers. Led by Isaiah Byrd, the Antlers are athletic enough to chase Gogue down. Getting the run game going will be key, because that’s what makes the Spartans go. Gogue is a dangerous player, but if the Antlers are able to bottle him up, it’ll be tough for Southeast to control the ball.

Boneman’s key matchup: Deer Creek’s mental state. The team was shaken by a car accident involving Kyndal Bosch, Carson Lundeen and Brandon Johnson after the Guthrie game. Nobody was seriously injured for the Antlers and Gower said he hopes the team can rally around the three boys.

Scott’s pick: Deer Creek 21, Southeast 13. The Spartan defense will keep them in it, but I don’t know if the offense will be able to get enough going for the upset.

Boneman’s pick: Deer Creek 27, Southeast 10. Might take a little while, but eventually Alex Christensen will start to wear you down. And look for Michael Coleman and Isaiah Byrd to come up big on defense.

Boneman’s DC prediction record: 4-0.

Last week: Ada got its first win, 63-6 over US Grant. Southeast stayed unbeaten with a 31-6 win over Capitol Hill.

Why Ada could win: Southeast hasn’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’t suggest that this team is a slouch.

Why SE could win: This team is playing with as much confidence as they’ve had in these players’ 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.

Key matchup: Southeast defensive front vs. Ada run game. Ada doesn’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’t want to play. But if Ada moves the ball on the ground, it falls right into their game plan.

The pick: Ada 34, Southeast 27. I’m not completely counting Southeast out of this one, but I think Ada will have too much size and depth for the Spartans.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

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

And though the numbers might not appear to make sense, I’m going with the Millwood defense as the Oklahoma City Players of the Week. Yes, the Falcon D gave up 41 points and 362 yards, but less than 100 of those yards came in the second half when Millwood needed their defense the most.

And the defense got takeaways on McGuinness’ first two possessions of the game — including the interception Clifford Lawrence took back 73 yards for a touchdown — to help the Falcons build a 20-0 lead.

Kevonte Richardson’s 200 passing yards and 144 rushing yards — including a 92-yard TD run — were ultra-impressive. Smae for Mike Cole’s three catches for three TDs. Brandon Swindall had multiple important catches and Shevin Patton averaged more than 10 yards per carry at running back.

And Millwood needed all of those contributions, but the top award goes to the defense, guys like Lawrence, Larry Seals, Josh Turner and Davion Pierson.

Seals was all over the place all night long, despite playing with a huge cast on one hand. Pierson battled dehydration throughout the night, but came up with two huge plays on McGuinness’ final offensive series, making a tackle in the backfield and sniffing out a screen pass to make another stop at the line of scrimmage.

That play came right before Swindall’s interception that sealed the victory.

Other contenders

Marcus Caddell and Diontay Washington, Douglass: Washington rushed for 60 yards on 10 carries, including two early TDs, and Caddell made the game’s biggest play, a 38-yard interception return for a score.

Jay Gogue, Southeast: Gogue led the Spartans to a third straight win, knocking off Capitol Hill. Gogue rushed for 165 yards and five TDs.

Brison Currin, Centennial: Coach Mark Ryan praised his quarterback for managing the offense well as the Bison head into Week 4 with a 2-1 record.

Aron Gaines and Migual Potts, Northeast: Each player had two TDs, with Gaines pulling in scoring receptions of 12 and 30 yards, and Potts rushing for scores of 48 and 54 yards as the Vikings defeated Riverside 38-6.

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.

Irving Roa, John Marshall cross country: Roa won the John Marshall meet at Lake Hefner last Thursday, finishing the 4,800-meter course in 16:55.

Why Star could win: The Bobcats have had a very good week of practice in response to a bad loss in Week 1. The team is filled with new starters, so there’s a learning curve involved. The Bobcats were frustrated by how well Southeast ran the football against them in the All-City Preview, so I’d expect that issue to be resolved this time around.

Why Southeast could win: coach Michael Branch is motivated to get this team back to doing things the right way, starting with fundamentals. And that’s been a big focus after some blocking and tackling issues last week in the win over US Grant. Jay Gogue is a solid dual-threat QB, and he helps anchor the defense as well.

Quote: “I know one thing, Michael Branch will have his team ready to play. I played against Southeast last year when I was at US Grant, and they definitely look improved.” – Star Spencer coach Terrell Love

Key matchup: Star QB Darion Bogus vs. Southeast DBs. I mentioned Gogue at safety, and Nelson Williams teams with him back there to make the middle of the secondary one of the team’s strongest areas. If the young Bobcat QB leaves any passes floating too long, one of those guys could be ready to swoop in for the pick. Bogus is a talented sophomore, but he’ll need to avoid sophomore mistakes.

The pick: Southeast 21, Star Spencer 20. Southeast was genuinely bothered by its loss to Star in the All-City Preview two weeks ago. It was just a scrimmage, but the Spartans were hurt by the 7-0 loss.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

Why US Grant could win: There’s a lot of excitement around the Generals with their new, young, energetic head coach, Matt Miller, and there’s some blossoming talent on the team. If Miller can put the pieces together on defense to give the new offense time to find its rhythm, this team has a chance to win a few.

Why Southeast could win: Since the spring, coach Michael Branch has been focused on building back Spartan football on fundamentals, and it seemed to show through last week with their performance at the All-City Preview, especially on defense. The offense has a good run-pass balance and quarterback Jay Gogue is a playmaker.

Quote: “We’ve just got to get a little more consistent. But I think we’re improving. We’re tackling a whole lot better than we did last year, so I’m happy about that.” – Branch

Key matchup: Grant passing game vs. Southeast secondary. The Generals are transitioning to more of a passing offense, but running the ball still looks to be the team’s strength. So if they can find some success throwing the ball, it could open up the run game even more. But throwing won’t be easy, especially with safeties Gogue and Nelson Williams — two of Southeast’s top defenders — patrolling the back end.

The pick: Southeast 27, Grant 21. I think Grant will win some games this year, but I also have seen a lot of improvement from Southeast over last year’s team. If the Spartans weren’t stuck in perhaps the state’s toughest district, they’d be a playoff contender. But getting to the top four in 5A-1 is a steep hill to climb.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

The Chargers defeated Cascia at the Broken Arrow Tournament, which was loaded with good competition from all classes.

In 6A, Edmond Memorial held onto the top spot and Jenks jumped from No. 4 to No. 2 after starting the season 9-0. The Trojans have lost two of their last three, including a loss Monday night to Edmond Santa Fe — the team they moved ahead of for the second spot.

The other team to beat Jenks was 5A’s No. 1, Tulsa Kelley, which is facing off with Edmond Memorial and Edmond Santa Fe tonight at Memorial. Should be a couple of thrillers.

Other items worth noting in Tuesday’s polls: Following its big win over Heritage Hall last week, Christian Heritage moved up one spot to fifth in 4A… Unbeaten Putnam City (9-0) moved up to No. 7 in 6A, Norman North (10-1) jumped to No. 8 and 8-3 Mustang slipped into the poll at No. 15… In 5A, unbeaten Coweta (9-0) moved into the top 5 at No. 5 and Southeast is No. 10.

– Scott Wright, swright@opubco.com

But to kick off the opening of two-a-days on Tuesday, here are a few points of interest on some of the top teams in that group:

- Star Spencer has some rebuilding in a couple crucial areas, quarterback and offensive line, as Terrell Love tries to keep the Bobcats moving forward from last year’s state championship in Class 4A. Down to 3A, Star will hand the QB job to either a senior or a sophomore, with Carlos Hutson (the senior) and Darion Bogus (the sophomore) battling it out through the next few weeks.

The offensive and defensive schemes at Star will look basically the same as what former coach Darrell Hall ran. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” Love said.

Of course, Love was his offensive coordinator two years ago before spending last season as the US Grant head man.

The Bobcats will get after it early, hitting the field for Midnight Madness Tuesday at 12:01 a.m.

- At Millwood, the time to talk is over, and the time to play has arrived. I remember watching the Falcons in the 7-on-7 Oklahoma Showdown in Edmond last month and one of the players claimed “We’re the best team in the state!” Then they lost to Class A Cashion in the quaterfinals.

More importantly for them, the Falcons have to develop on the offensive and defensive lines, which is where Kingfisher was able to overpower them.

- Douglass’ offense will be more based in the pass than last season and Shon Bridges showed during the summer that he’s ready to handle it. The expectations will be high again for the Trojans after last year’s runner-up finish and they have some holes to fill, especially in the trenches.

- At John Marshall, the defense will be solid, with six returning starters, so it will be up to them to keep the offense from getting in too many bad situations and let the new QB — either a junior (Dion Vickers) or a freshman (Davion Smith) — gradually work into the system.

The defense will be anchored by LB Denzel Johnson and DT Dejion Brison, a fourth-year starter.

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.

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.

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

The Oklahoma City player of the week is Northwest’s T’aries Taylor. In a 60-57 win over McGuinness on the road Friday night, Taylor scored 22 points as the Knights wiped out a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat the Irish.

Others:
Kendre Talley, Star Spencer boys basketball: Talley scored 19 of his 25 points in the second half in an 86-54 win over Southeast. He also added 10 assists.

Darrius Bryson, Star Spencer boys basketball: Bryson scored 22 and pulled down 12 rebounds in the Bobcats win over Southeast.

Shola Adebayo, Southeast girls basketball: Adebayo had 11 of her 24 points in the fourth quarter as the Spartans beat Star Spencer 43-38.

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.

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.

The Bears allowed the Chargers’ Barry Sanders to run for 128 yards but half of those came on one carry, a 64-yard touchdown run in the season quarter. The Bears also forced two Heritage Hall turnovers in winning their seventh game of the season.

Others:
Kevin Forbes, Douglass: Forbes ran for two touchdowns in the Trojans’ 29-14 win over Woodward on Friday night.

Emilio Gatewood, Millwood: Gatewood could very easily have won the honor for the third consecutive week, after running for 181 yards and three touchdowns in Millwood’s 47-0 win over Centennial.

Jay Gogue, Southeast: Gogue ran for two touchdowns, including a 75-yarder, and threw for another in Southeast’s 37-22 loss to McGuinness.

Southeast (2-6, 0-5) vs. Bishop McGuinness (6-2, 4-1)
When: 7:30 p.m. Friday
Where: Pribil Stadium

Southeast
Why the Spartans can win: It’s going to be a tough task for Michael Branch’s kids. Southeast has averaged 20 points per game but success in district play hasn’t come easy this season.

McGuinness (W, Guthrie; L, Bishop Kelley; W, Millwood; W, Piedmont; L, Weatherford; W, Woodward, W, Douglass; W, Guymon)
Why the Irish can win: Because this team is rolling right now, both offensively and defensively. McGuinness should be too physical in every way possible for Southeast.

Key matchup: Irish mindset. It’s easy to overlook a game like this with Elk City to close out the season. McGuinness still has to execute just like any other game. Expect the Irish to impose their will early and often.

The pick: McGuinness 42, Southeast 7. The speed and size will be too much. I’m looking for Kyle Ahmad to have a big one for Kenny Young’s squad.

Here’s a few I’ve come up with. Let me know, either through a comment here or an e-mail (raber@opubco.com), if you have any others.

I’m sure there are plenty more I’ve missed but here are a few:

- Morrison and Shattuck’s 90-game winning streaks in football
- Tulsa Union’s and Jenks’ stranglehold on the 6A football title
-Asher and Owasso baseball dominance
-McGuinness girls cross country
-Bethel girls basketball state tournament streak
-Bartlesville boys swimming
-El Reno wrestling
-McGuinness girls tennis
-Cascia Hall boys tennis

Others:
Jay Gogue, Southeast: Gogue ran for two touchdowns, including one for 90 yards, in Southeast’s 49-20 loss to Piedmont.

Brenden Jordan, John Marshall: Jordan ran for 195 yards and two touchdowns and threw for another two as the Bears improved to 6-2 with a 28-13 win over Alva.

Douglass’ defense: Despite a 14-7 loss to Weatherford, there was still plenty of good for the Trojans on defense. They bottled up the Eagles’ powerful running game for the majority of the night and kept the team in the game despite a rash of turnovers on offense. Linebacker Aaron James played well a week after aggravating a separated shoulder and Corey Mitchell, another linebacker, came back after suffering an injury of his own and still performed admirably in a close game.

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.

Class 5A (Friday at Tulsa Rogers, Saturday at Sapulpa)

McAlester vs. Carl Albert, noon

McAlester (13-19): Don’t let the record fool you, the Lady Buffs can play. And they’ve played some of the toughest competition around this season. Last year’s 5A runner-up will rely on its heavy hitters, particularly juniors Kati Wills and Lauryn Kirkhart. Setter Jinny Judge was all-tournament at state last year, too.

Carl Albert (23-8): The Lady Titans’ Sallie McLaurin might be the best individual in the 5A field. The 6-foot-2 hitter can crush it, and along with fellow senior Ashley Acklin, CA has a strong pair of hitters to go around Toni Cheadle in the middle. Cheadle is a sophomore playing her first year of volleyball, but she’s learning quickly. CA beat McAlester twice during the regular season, but the Lady Buffs took a game in each match.

Tulsa Washington vs. Tahlequah, 1:45 p.m.

Tulsa Washington (26-5): Ask any opposing coach about Booker T., and you’ll hear the name Tyler Cockrell. The athletic outside hitter is part of a group of seniors that make the Lady Hornets go, but she’s the star. She’ll get a test in the first round, though, against Tahlequah, which has a couple of strong blockers.

Tahlequah (35-5): The team that won more games — and played more games — than any team in the state hopes for just three more. And it’s hard to say Tahlequah won’t be in line for a rebuilding year after this weekend. Their roster includes 10 players, nine of which are seniors. Middles Sarah Nelson and Natalie Nowlin are the blockers mentioned above. The battle between them and Cockrell should be a good show.

Skiatook vs. Bishop McGuinness, 3:30 p.m.

Skiatook (22-12): Making its first state tournament appearance in 15 years, Skiatook is motivated to make some noise, but the first-round draw of McGuinness makes for a tough opener. Leslie Allred is a key component, both as a passer and hitter. Courtney Shoemake adds to the team’s defensive presence in the middle, and setter Arinee’ Thompson has more than 500 assists in her sophomore year.

McGuinness (20-6): If anyone has a shot at knocking off Tulsa Kelley, the Irish are atop the list. With Katie Harris at setter — “She can take a bad ball and make it good,” coach Kristy Ellis said — and junior Maddie Coffey at outside hitter, McGuinness can create offense. Coffey has a quick swing and is hard to block. The Irish defense is solid as well, all over the floor, which gives them a chance in any match.

Tulsa Kelley vs. Southeast, 5:15 p.m.

Tulsa Kelley (29-3): Unbeaten against in-state competition this year, it’s hard to envision anyone beating the Comets this week. But upsets can happen. The Comets are well-coached and have talent all over the place, particularly in the middle with sisters Kitan and Inky Ajanaku.

Southeast (24-7): The first OKCPS representative at the state tournament since 1995, Southeast has a tall task opening against Kelley. But this is a team that isn’t afraid of anything. They had to go up against two higher ranked teams to win their regional, and they’ve got plenty of talent to pull off the shocker. Victoria Kappel and Shola Adebayo are the main players to keep an eye on.

Class 6A at Sapulpa

Tulsa Union vs. Bartlesville, noon

Union (27-5): The Lady Redskins don’t really have a star, but they’ve got loads of talent. Ironically, they’ve beaten every team in the 6A field this year, except for Bartlesville, because the two teams didn’t play. In 6A competition, only Edmond Santa Fe and Edmond Memorial have beaten Union this year. The Lady ‘Skins rely a lot on their setter, Laura Taylor, and libero, Jessica Powers.

Bartlesville (28-8): The only non-host team to advance from regionals, Bartlesville had to beat the defending 6A champs on their home court to get here. After knocking off Owasso, Bartlesville might be facing the top team in the class, so the leadership of Paige Smith and Kendra Schmidtlein will be crucial.

Edmond Memorial vs. Broken Arrow, 1:45 p.m.

Memorial (27-5): The strength of Edgar Miraku’s squad has been defense all year, and they’ve gotten a big boost from some younger players, especially in the sophomore class. Still, it’s the older players who lead the way. Micha Hancock can do a little bit of everything, and at 6-foot-3, Mattie Burleson has shown great leaping ability. Jaira Wilsey provides the senior leadership from her outside hitter spot.

Broken Arrow (11-21): Like McAlester in 5A, don’t be fooled by the win-loss record. Yes, BA only won nine matches. But not many teams played the level of competition they did. All 21 losses came to teams who reached the state tournament in their class. And it was BA that upset Edmond Memorial in the first round of last year’s tournament.

Stillwater vs. Edmond Santa Fe, 3:30 p.m.

Stillwater (18-14): A lot of teams get to state by being balanced, and Stillwater is no exception. They play defense on the back row as well as anyone, but they can be dangerous at the net, too. Outside hitter Anna Gentry can play all over the floor. Middle blocker Devin Kerns is a go-to girl on offense and Mary O’Neill covers the court the way a libero is supposed to do.

Edmond Santa Fe (28-4): Will Ethridge’s squad has been on the verge of really good things all year, and they’ve got to be considered one of the favorites this weekend. Tate Hardaker is an all-around player and good hitter from the outside spot. And if you’re looking for defense, Mindy Gowen is among the best in the state.

Edmond North vs. Jenks, 5:15 p.m.

Edmond North (18-14): Tanna Smith’s first year as the team’s head coach has been a work in progress, but North is peaking at the right time. Their bench goes as deep as any in the tournament, but their senior class is the team’s foundation. Kayley Earnst at libero sets up the offense, which is anchored by outside hitters Alli Hammer — the best name in volleyball, particularly for a hitter — and Torrie Flynn.

Jenks (26-6): There could be some revenge on the minds of the Jenks players, led by junior outside hitter Carissa Ophus. Edmond North went to five games with Jenks at the Stillwater Tournament in late September, with the Lady Trojans eventually losing the fifth game 17-15. So look for some fireworks in this first-round match.

Others
Emilio Gatewood, Millwood: Gatewood is bouncing back well from an injury that limited his effectiveness early in the season. In Friday night’s 26-24 win over Lexington, Gatewood ran for 124 and a touchdown, the eventual game-winner. 

Brendon Jordon, John Marshall: Jordan had a touchdown run, ran for two two-point conversions and returned a fumble 64 yards for a touchdown as the Beats improved to 5-1 with a 21-0 win over St. Mary.

Quinton Neil, Douglass: Neil ran for a pair of touchdowns, including a 70-yarder, as Douglass beat Guymon 48-6. Neil was one of four Trojans to score on the ground.

Trevyone Willis, Northeast: Willis returned an interception 79 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter of Northeast’s 32-7 loss to Marlow.

Volleyball
The Oklahoma City volleyball players of the week are Victoria Kappel and Shola Adebayo of Southeast. Kappel, a senior, and Adebayo, a junior, lifted the No. 10 Spartans to a pair of upset victories in the Class 5A regional that sent Southeast to the state tournament for the first time in 15 years.

Centennial (3-2, 1-1): The Bison were expected to be a playoff contender and, while that remains a possibility, a loss to Bethel to open district play puts a big crimp on those aspirations. Centennial must win the next three weeks, or at least two of three, to have a shot at making their postseason debut. With Millwood and Lexington looming in the season’s final two weeks, the time for Centennial to make a run is now.

Douglass (4-1, 2-0): The only blemish on the Trojans record is their Soul Bowl loss to Millwood in the second week. With the exception of a close win over Star Spencer, the rest of Douglass’ wins have been comfortable. They should have another this week with Guymon but after that, the next two weeks will determine the Trojans’ playoff spot. Douglass play at McGuinness and then hosts Weatherford. A sweep and the Trojans figure to win the district title. 1-1 give them a home playoff game. 0-2 and the Trojans seem destined to go on the road during the playoffs. Douglass’ offense has been explosive but it’s hard to fully judge the Trojans with their two key games still ahead.

John Marshall (4-1, 1-1): The Bears are off to their best start in years, with the only blemish coming in a 19-13 overtime loss to Newkirk two weeks ago. This week figures to be a win for the Bears but things get tougher down the stretch with Heritage Hall and Kingfisher. If John Marshall can win their other games, though, and they figure to have pretty good shots against Alva and Perry, the Bears can make the playoffs for the first time sicne dropping to Class 2A from 5A.

Millwood (3-2, 1-1): The Falcons got off to a rocking start with wins over Douglass and Star Spencer, two teams expected to contend for a title in 4A. Since, though, things have been rocky. Trayvon Henry’s suspension from the team and a rash of injuries has hurt Millwood’s district title hopes, especially after last week’s loss to Jones. Jones wasn’t even expected to be Millwood’s biggest competition in the district. That was Lexington, the team the Falcons host this week. They have the best true wide receiver in the state in any class in Josh Turner and one of the best quarterbacks in Kevonte Richardson but they’ve got to establish a running game to be a serious contender. So a lot of Millwood’s future rests in either the return of a healthy Emilio Gatewood or the emergence of another runnign threat.

Northeast (1-4, 0-2): It was expected to be another tough season for the Vikings but they’ve already improved on last season with a win, a 37-13 win over U.S. Grant in week 3. It’ll be tough for Northeast to get another victory this year but they’ve at least shown improvement on last season’s winless year.

Northwest (0-5, 0-2): The Knights were another team that expected a rough season after losing a lot of experienced players from last year’s 3-win squad. That’s certainly held up as Northwest has been beaten by 20 or more points in each game. The most winnable game on the schedule appears to be the season finale against Western Heights.

Southeast (2-3, 0-2): The Spartans were expected to be another of the All-City schools that had a legitimate chance to contend for a playoff spot. A 2-1 non-district start appeared to signal good things but an unexpected loss to Guymon in the district opener put a damper on those playoff hopes. Weatherford and McGuinness still loom on the Spartans schedule and they figure to have to pull off an upset in one of those games to have a chance, or have some help from other teams.

Star Spencer (3-2, 2-0): The Bobcats have had an up and down season, losing to Millwood and Douglass in non-district play, dealing with several players having to sit out the season opener after a fight broke out during their scrimmage at El Reno, and dealing with the injury to Terrance Olds. Now, Olds is back, giving the Bobcats one of the best 1-2 running punches aroudn with him and Darren (or Darwin) Rideau. It would be an upset if Star Spencer lost any of the next four games. If they’re able to get through those, a season-ending matchup at No. 1 Glenpool looms. Star Spencer needs to show more consistency to be able to hang with the Warriors but if they can stay healthy, the Bobcats certainly still have a shot.

U.S. Grant (1-4, 0-2): Things are never easy for U.S. Grant as long as they’re in 6A. They’ve been shutout in the first two district games by teams not considered among the top teams in the district. So things only get tougher as they’ll face Owasso, Enid, Stillwater and Tulsa Union (plus Ponca City) down the stretch. Another win doesn’t appear to be in the cards for Terrell Love’s squad.

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

Here’s a look at how All-City Athletic Conference alumni did in this weekend’s college football action. Know someone I left off, let me know with a comment here or an e-mail to raber@opubco.com.

Star Spencer

Terry Hardeman, Sr., LB, UCO: Hardeman had a team-leading 10 tackles (7 solo), three for loss, a sack and a pass breakup in UCO’s 24-7 win over West Texas A&M.

By virtue of its home victory over Union, Edmond Memorial leapfrogged the Lady Redskins for No. 2 in Class 6A, sitting behind cross-town rival Santa Fe — each with a win over Union early this season. Santa Fe topped Memorial at the Union Invitational, and they’ll meet again a week from today.

We mentioned in today’s paper, there’s a big Class 5A showdown in Tulsa, when unbeaten Bishop Kelley hosts Bishop McGuinness tonight. But McGuinness dropped a spot to fourth in the rankings, thanks to surging Tulsa Washington, which now holds a 13-0 record. But the Lady Hornets will get tested in the next 10 days, with three straight matches against 6A teams ranked in the top 12, including No. 8 Stillwater and No. 7 Bartlesville.

Heritage Hall is still holding the top spot in Class 4A at 6-2, with Clinton in second. Cache hopped up to No. 3 with a 12-1 record as previous No. 3, Cascia Hall fell to 7-7 on the year and No. 5 in the rankings.

There are a few other big games tonight, including Edmond Memorial at Putnam City, Broken Arrow at Stillwater, and in 5A, McAlester at Southeast.

Tim Thomas took over Northeast last year the day two-a-days started, with a limited number of players and concerns over whether the Vikings would even have a season. The Vikings went winless last year, but just fielding a team for a full season was an accomplishment for a school that suffered massive defections after talks the school would close.

Montana Lyons is in a similar, though not quite as dire, situation at Capitol Hill. He took over the Redskins after they had one year under Darrell Peterson (who replaced three-year coach Pascal Jones just before last season). If nothing else, Lyons is an impressive speaker, as I found out at Tuesday’s coaches luncheon. Lyons is passionate about improving the environment for football players at Capitol Hill and having that not only translate into better performances on the field but in better high school experiences for the players in general.

And there’s reason to believe there will be better on-the-field performance. In last week’s scrimmage, Capitol Hill’s defense had a strong showing against Deer Creek, not exactly known as a pushover.

I also want to hang around to watch Millwood-Centennial over at Miller. Everyone knows just how good Millwood is, with Trayvon Henry, Kevonte Richardson and Josh Turner among their numerous stars. Centennial is an interesting team to me for a couple reasons: 1.) I really believe in Mark Ryan. He did a fantastic job at Western Heights two years ago, then made a decision to leave there that bettered his situation (He wasn’t happy with the direction the Jets programs were taking, and he lived East of the city). So he took a job as an assistant coach under Willis Alexander at Douglass. He’s back in a head coaching job and has an intriguing team that has a chance, should things fall together, to make the playoffs this year. The Bison weren’t too far away last year and have some real talent.

After the Millwood-Centennial game, or at least close to the end, I”m going to head over to Taft. The last game at Douglass is Douglass against the Capitol Hill-Northeast winner and I don’t anticipate Douglass having too much trouble there.

John Marshall-U.S. Grant starts out things at Taft. I could see Grant pulling something off here but John Marshall has a lot of returning starters and one of the top players in OKCPS in Ken Berry. I think the Bears advance to play Star Spencer later in the night. The second game there is Northwest-Southeast. This one should go to the Spartans, as Northwest does have a lot of starters to replace after making significant strides last year. The game of the night, to me, though is that Star-John Marshall game if it happens. Star has some great skill position guys back and John Marshalll has some stars and nearly everyboyd back onm both sides. I think Star winds up being too much in the end but it’ll be interesting to see how tonight plays out.

The highlight at day one, if things play out how they’re expected to, figures to be John Marshall vs. Star Spencer at Taft Stadium. It’ll be interesting to see how Star Spencer’s offense fares against John Marshall’s defense, which returns 10 starters.

The second day figures to feature a preview of September’s Soul Bowl between Douglass and Millwood. This is one of the most heated rivalries in the state so it should be entertaining to watch. I’ve never covered the All-City Preview, so definitely looking forward to checking it out on Thursday.

The district will have just two new basketball coaches and both of those will be at the same school. U.S. Grant has new basketball coaches on both the boys and girls front.

It was thought long-time Star Spencer coach Janith Johnson would retire after last year but she’s coming back for at least one more year.

Ingersoll also said he was still trying to work out a series of games for OKCPS teams against big-time programs from aroung the country. He wants to bring some of the nation’s top talent here to OKC to play against the top teams from the district. Ingersoll said this was still a year or two away.

“We made a lot of mistakes offensively” Branch said. “But now we know where we are and what we’ve got to work on.”

The Spartans return eight starters on offense.

One of them in quarterback Jay Gogue, who Branch said did a good job in the scrimmage.

Southeast is one of the teams that OKCPS athletic director Phil Ingersoll thinks has a chance to make the playoffs.

“We have two that definitely should be in (Douglass and Star Spencer) and a few others that have a chance,” Ingersoll said. “We need to get to the point where we’re getting five teams consistently in the playoffs.”

There has seemed to be an accepting attitude of the struggles around OKCPS football in the past. No more.

OKCPS athletic director Phil Ingersoll has brought with him a new attitude to the office since he took over in 2007. He worked on getting control of the school’s fields (as crazy as it sounds now, the fields were, until last year, run individually, with at least some district schools being forced to pay rent just to play). He also has ensured that each class will have new jerseys at some point in their high school careers.

Perhaps the biggest thing, though, has been the hiring he’s done withing the district, trying to make sure the coaches fit into what the district is trying to accomplish.

In researching this story, the coaches were, across the board, VERY complimentary of the work Ingersoll has done.

“Our schools get everything they need,” Ingersoll said Friday night when I saw him at the Douglass-Clinton-Choctaw scrimmage. “I’m really happy with how things are going in the district.”

“We held our ground,” Branch said. “We kind of lost focus at the end.” 

Branch was particularly pleased with the play of his defensive line, which was surprising considering of the seven returning starters on that side of the ball for Southeast, just one comes from the line.

“It was a tremendous surprise,” Branch said. “Hopefully they can keep that up.” 

The lone returner there is sophomore DT Michael Holder. Holder (5-8, 170) started as a sophomore last year.

“He’s got tremendous quickness off the ball,” Branch said.

It’ll be a busy week for volleyball in the All-City Athletic Conference with an almost full slate of games on Wednesday and Friday as well.

Wednesday:

Centennial at John Marshall

U.S. Grant at Northeast

Star Spencer at Capitol Hill

Friday:

Classes SAS at Southeast

Northeast at Douglass

Millwood at Northwest
