El Reno High School’s cross country team had a male-only look over the weekend with no female runners taking part in the Eighth Annual Mike Driskill Turkey Creek Classic.

The Indians had the weekend off but were slated to host Santa Fe South Charter School in a nonconference match Tuesday night at Jenks Simmons Field House.  

Etta Dale Junior High’s seventh-grade football team improved to 3-0 on the season last week with a 44-30 win over Del City. The Indians are now 2-0 in Suburban Conference action after a recent 44-12 win over Noble. The other victory was a 34-16 decision over Elk City.

The feeling of open space, which comes with rural living, was the underlying argument by a group of El Reno citizens in the Riverside Addition against a proposal to rezone acreage in the area for new housing.
