Smith is the middle school ELA teacher and assistant basketball coach. She was nominated by a personal friend who has observed firsthand that she works long hours and puts her whole being into her work as a teacher.

Indians path back to state suffers setback to Titans

Body

MIDWEST CITY – A repeat trip to the Class 5A State Fast-Pitch Softball State Championships will have to come through the consolation bracket as El Reno High School suffered an 11-1 loss to Carl Albert.

The Indians went 1-1 on the first day of the Region 1 Championships on the Titans home turf, run-ruling Ardmore 11-0 in five innings. El Reno, now 13-17 on the season, will face the Tigers again in an elimination game.

If successful, the Indians will have to defeat Carl Albert twice to earn their third trip to state in the past four seasons.
