While it was postponed for 18 days due to COVID-19 complications, the much-anticipated showdown between El Reno High School and eighth-ranked Santa Fe South delivered cliffhanger results.

El Reno, the fifth-ranked team in the same Class 5A poll, battled back from deficits in the first two games to sweep the St. Bernards 3-0 by scores of 27-25/25-22/25-17.

The Indians improve to 20-5 on the year for a fifth straight season to reach double-digit wins. However, it’s the first time EHS has hit the 20-win mark under head coach Kristen Koehler.

Learning a lesson from the previous day, El Reno High School’s softball team shut down a seventh-inning threat last week to close out the home portion of its schedule with a 5-3 win over the Oklahoma City Broncos.

The win over the home-school program lifted El Reno to 13-19 on the season and came 24 hours after the Indians squandered a four-run lead in the seventh inning of a 10-9 loss to Piedmont.

Three players have been key stats producers for the Indians over four games.

The COVID-19 pandemic has played havoc with most sports in Canadian County for the regular season, but the virus ended up dealing Union City High School’s softball team a crazy playoff scenario.

Just days after beating Fletcher to close the regular season, the Tigers were supposed to join the Wildcats in Ninnekah for the Class A, District 27 Championship.

However, the Owls were forced to back out due to the virus, leaving Union City and Fletcher playing a best of three series for a spot in the regional round of the postseason.

It was rough going for both Union City and Calumet high schools in the recent Class A fall baseball playoffs, with the two county schools combining for just one win and 18 total hits.

Union City, ranked 20th in the state in the final regular-season poll, was playing in the District 10 Championships at 10th-ranked Amber-Pocasset. The Tigers defeated Glencoe 10-0 in the opener but dropped back-to-back games to the host by scores of 3-1 and 11-0.

Ludy Griggs’ team ends the season with a 17-5 record.

El Reno High School’s boys cross country team took part in the recent Edmond Pre-State Meet Class 5A Division, taking 18th place overall.

The Indians posted a team score of 484 but had all its runners place at 102nd or better out of a field of 134 runners.

Matthew Chaffee led the El Reno effort with a 91st-place finish with a time of 20 minutes and five seconds over the 5-kilometer (3.1 mile) course. He posted a kilometer split of just over four minutes.

Due to changes in the college landscape from COVID-19, Redlands Community College’s cross country team is one of just two sports competing this fall.

The Cougars got in their first action of the fall with a dual meet against Cameron University. Since it was a dual meet, no team scores or individual places were recorded.
