A four-game win streak has lifted Calumet High School into the No.1 spot of the Class B Fall State Baseball Poll over archrival and defending state champion Fort Cobb-Broxton.

Calumet moved to 6-1 on the season with a three-game run toward the championship of the Leedey Invitational. The Chieftains defeated Arnett (16-1) and Drummond (13-5) and Class B’s fifth-ranked Hammon (9-3).

Susan Elizabeth Kirby was born Feb. 27, 1960, in Washington, D.C. to Ernest and Nadine Dorsey Kirby. She passed away Aug. 20, 2025, in Oklahoma City.

The third of eight children, Susan’s family moved several times across the country during her childhood with her father’s federal prison career. She graduated from Texas High School in Texarkana, Texas, in 1978.

Susan joyfully welcomed her children, Jan and Eric, and devoted herself to raising them with love and care.

In the mid-90s, she and her family settled in El Reno.

Having missed extending a playoff streak to seven years by just one game or 10 points, it goes without saying that El Reno High School’s football team has plenty of learning points to recall from the 2024 season.

It’s just those points are in the past and that’s where head coach Russell Cook wants them to stay.
