The bull at the center of a bullfighting exhibition to close out the 2022 El Reno Wranglers Open Rodeo didn’t seem to appreciate getting leaped over, taking out its frustration on one of the fighters.

There are several reasons why Piedmont’s football team is causing El Reno High School’s coaching staff to spend extra preparation time this week ahead of Friday night's first road game of the 2022 season.

Those reasons stem from the Wildcats flexbone offense.

“It’s all about misdirection. It’s the triple option and you’ve got to pick up not only the quarterback but the dive man and the pitch man,” said El Reno head coach Russell Cook.

The extra preparation, from a defensive standpoint, comes from the fact it's an offense not seen much.

Pictured are the mutton bustin' winners from the 2022 El Reno Wranglers Open Rodeo held over the weekend at the Denny-Crump Arena.

Hayes Ferguson, far right, was named the winner. His brother, Wager, middle, was second and Oakley Collet was third.

When people think of gardening, they probably envision the traditional plot of land in the landscape filled with vegetable plants, flowers and shrubs. It’s possible, however, to have a tiny garden inside the home.

Errors against a hard-hitting Carl Albert team, ranked eighth in Class 5A, took its toll on El Reno High School’s volleyball team in Suburban Conference action last week.

After a close 25-19 tally in game one, the Titans handed 5A’s 16th-ranked El Reno a 3-0 loss by scores of 25-9 and 25-17.

The setback dropped the Indians to 4-3 on the season and 0-1 in Suburban Conference standings.

El Reno committed 30 errors in the loss, six of those off Carl Albert serves. Three errors came from the Indians own serving line and three more off wide block attempts.

OKLAHOMA CITY — When a fresh wound occurs, cells rush to produce collagen, which aids healing. But sometimes this process goes awry, resulting in one of two extremes: insufficient healing or excessive scar tissue.

Thanks to a recent discovery at the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, researchers now have a better grasp on the cause.

“It’s a delicate balance,” said OMRF scientist Lorin Olson, Ph.D., who led the study published this month in the journal Cell Reports.

“Everything must work just right for proper wound healing to take place.”

In games such as the U.S. 81 Battle between El Reno High School's football team and its oldest rival Chickasha, a handful of plays can be the thin line between winning and losing.

Unfortunately for the Indians, those plays fell in favor of the Chicks.

After an apparent tie-breaking touchdown catch by El Reno was waved off, Chickasha went on a 10-play, 85-yard scoring drive late in the fourth period to pull out a 20-14 win over the Indians.
