Freshman Jaida Richardson scored a season-high 18 points but it wasn’t enough as El Reno High School’s girls basketball team kicked off the 2026 portion of its schedule with a 61-38 road loss to Midwest City.

The loss snapped a two-game winning streak as El Reno slipped to 5-4 on the season.

The Indians are now 4-2 in the District 5A-2 standings but remain in third place.

Richardson scored three 2-point baskets, hit two of the team’s three treys on the night and went 6-of-7 from the free-throw line.

In just his second game back from emergency appendectomy surgery, Bradley Island scored a season-high 19 points in a losing effort as El Reno High School’s boys basketball team dropped a 64-51 road game at Midwest City.

The 13-point loss gave the league-leading Bombers the sweep of El Reno in District 5A-2 play. Midwest City beat the Indians by 25 points inside Jenks Simmons Field House.

El Reno, winner of three straight going into the 2026 opener, slipped to 3-6 overall and 2-4 in the league. The Indians are tied for fourth with Lawton in the 5A-2 win column at 2-4.

Our beloved matriarch Geraldine Frances Niehues passed away peacefully on December 29, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. Our “G,” known as “Jerry” to her friends, was born in June 1943 while her father was serving in WWII. She was the only daughter of Maxine and Lawrence Brockhaus. Lawrence was stationed in Alaska during that time, and therefore Jerry was 2 years old before she met her father at his military homecoming.
