HARRAH – What started out to be a promising tournament ended on a sour note as El Reno High School’s girls basketball team dropped a 54-29 contest to Shawnee in the third-place game of the Harrah Panthers Classic.

The loss to the Suburban Conference rival Wolves left El Reno with a 1-2 record for the event after losing to Colorado’s Class 6A Pine Creek (48-31) and beating Star Spencer (47-19) in the opener.

HARRAH – After two close misses, El Reno High School’s boys basketball team ended a five-game losing streak to open the 2025-26 season with a 62-53 decision over Star Spencer.

The win came in the seventh-place game of the Harrah Panthers Classic and followed losses to Harrah (53-48) and John Marshall (65-61) by a combined nine points. The 1-2 tourney mark leaves El Reno with a 1-5 record for the season.

By defeating the Bobcats, El Reno avoided going winless in the classic after taking the title the past two seasons.

I’ve been bugging Janice and Mike Freeman to sit down with me and tell me all about their new restaurant, Freeman’s Eats, and it finally happened. It’s not their fault it took so long. Opening a new restaurant is a lot of work.
