OKLAHOMA CITY – After a lackluster first inning, El Reno High School’s baseball team scored 36 unanswered runs to sweep a District 5A-1 doubleheader against Southeast.
El Reno’s 24-3 and 15-0 victories over the Spartans lifted EHS to 12-13 on the season. The Indians are 5-4 and fifth in the district standings, but trail Bishop McGuinness by a game in the loss column for fourth and hold the tiebreaker over the Irish.
Caroline Huber has made only one stop in goal over the past nine years of her soccer career, but it was a season-saver for El Reno High School’s girls soccer team.
Moving from the field into the goal for a shootout, Huber made a diving save on Carl Albert’s fourth attempt to help preserve the Indians 4-2 victory in the penalty kick battle.
“I had not played goalie for nine years and I was terrified but I was also excited. This was a win we needed and I was glad I got that block,” said Huber.
While a tall mountain remains in its path, El Reno High School’s boys soccer team is still climbing toward a playoff berth after a 2-1 victory over rival Carl Albert.
The win was the second straight for El Reno, which improved to 2-3 in the District 5A-2 standings and into fifth place.
The Indians, now 3-7 on the season, need to win their last two league matches against Guthrie (1-4) and Guymon (3-2) to have a shot at the postseason.
Getting an early look at the Lawton Country Club Course, site of the 2022 Class 5A West Regional Championship, El Reno High School’s boys golf team continues to shave strokes off its overall score.
El Reno placed ninth overall in the Regional Review Tournament hosted by Lawton Eisenhower, shooting a 389 tally.
“The weather was much better than previous weeks and we continue to shave strokes as a team. The goal at the halfway point is to start getting into that fourth through sixth spot as a team at tournaments.
El Reno High School’s tennis team found mixed results last week during tournament play, led by a pair of top five finishes in the Western Heights Invitational.
Playing at the Earlywine Tennis Center, El Reno’s top doubles team of Bri Barksdale and Jayna Graham earned fourth. The Indians No.2 doubles team of Kambry Maifield and Alyssa Watson finished second.
Two doubles each from Alexis Archer and Mackinzie DeLong helped Union City High School’s slow-pitch softball team reach a season milestone last week with a 16-0 win over Harding Charter Prep.
The Tigers have won five of their last six games to hit the 20-win plateau at 20-10. The other victories were over Crooked Oak (15-2), Cement (18-2), Waukomis (11-3) and Class A’s 12th-ranked Fort Cobb/Broxton (13-12).
The loss in the stretch was a 14-2 decision to Class 4A’s 20th-ranked Hinton.
Coming off a third-place finish in the recent Lookeba-Sickles Invitational, Calumet High School’s baseball team picked up its second straight victory last week with a 12-3 decision over Binger-Oney.
The Chieftains, ranked No.17 this week in the latest Class A poll, moved to 12-3 on the spring with the win over the Bobcats.
Calumet posted a 2-1 tournament mark after a 13-3 win over Class A’s 16th-ranked Shattuck in the third-place game. The other victory was over Elk City’s JV squad (10-9) and the loss was a 4-0 shutout to the host, ranked ninth in Class B.
In its final tune-up before the NJCAA Southwest District Championships, Redlands Community College’s golf team placed fifth last week in the 2022 Susie Maxwell Berning Classic.
Played on the West Course at Lincoln Park in Oklahoma City, Redlands carded a 23-over 614 score for 36 holes. The rounds of 303 and 311 placed the Cougars as the second highest community college entered behind Iowa Western, which tied for third at 604.
Ashlyn Acosta led Redlands with a 148 (73/75) tally which tied her for sixth in the individual medalist chase.
