Barking at your feet

Body

There are four slices of the District 5A-1 playoff pie still on the serving plate, and with two games left in the regular season, El Reno High School’s football team is still sitting at the main table ready to eat.

Barking loudly at the Indians feet are the Altus Bulldogs, a team which El Reno head coach Chuck Atchison knows will be hungry to take a bite out of EHS’ part of that pie.

Success is the byproduct of the culture change in ER football; work remains

One of the goals El Reno head coach Chuck Atchison has preached numerous times in practice and on game nights has been to change the overall culture around the Indians program.

A culture that believes any football team, no matter what grade, can step out on the field any given night and compete.

It’s no doubt that culture had slipped down to bare bones over the seasons from a 12-1 run in 2009 to when Atchison took over the program after the 2016 season.
