It was also a dominating performance for the cross country team at Edison over the weekend, too! The varsity boys and girls both brought home 1st place; the JV girls won their race; the JH boys took a commanding victory, and were SO close to having a perfect score; lastly, but certainly not least, the JH girls finished 2nd! Way to represent, XC!

Volleyball

A few last regular season games before playoffs start next week for the Lady Chieftain volleyball team! Regionals will be NEXT Monday, 10/10. As it stands and given nothing changes, the ladies will be hosting (AGAIN) next Monday. That information will be coming out this week. Check our social media pages for updates!

Football

The Chieftains fell to a tough and talented Coweta team on Friday night. The team travels to Del City this Friday. We have a student bus set to go for 9th – 12th graders that are interested. We’ve emailed them the permission form, but it is attached just in case it is needed again. Forms are due THIS Wednesday and can be turned in, in the main office of the high school. 

The next home game will be for homecoming on Oct. 21! The homecoming parade is set for Thursday, Oct. 20. We will get the themes for homecoming week out soon.

Also, don’t forget senior night will be on Oct. 28 and is the last regular season home game of the year. There will be a special opportunity for staff to sign up to compete in a punt, pass, and kick competition for a gift card to Neal’s Home Store at this game. Be on the lookout for more information and the sign-up sheet!

Chick-fil-A Night

This Thursday (Oct. 6) will be Sapulpa Athletics Day at the Glenpool Chick-Fil-A, all day! A portion of the proceeds will come back to the athletic department.
