The Chieftains had a tough three days last week, but had LOTS of success! Thursday night saw the Chieftains defeat a strong 6A school (Enid). Then this weekend, our varsity went to Jenks to wrestle in the Larry Wilkey invitational. Also, our JV wrestlers and HS girls traveled to Inola to compete in a tournament that hosted 42 teams.

The varsity Chieftains travel to Claremore this week for district duals and the JH travels to Pryor for district duals.
Basketball
It was a great weekend for basketball! The men went 2-1 in the Lincoln Christian Tournament and the ladies went 3-0 and were tournament champions! Tyla Heard was named to the All-Tournament Team and Stailee Heard was the Tournament MVP, on the ladies’ side! Both teams are at home twice this week; Tuesday against Booker T. and Friday against Muskogee.
