Wrestling
Senior night is Tuesday night in the Chieftain Center as Bartlesville travels to town. JH begins at 6pm, senior night recognition is after that match, before the varsity begins (around 7pm-ish.) We hope to see you there to watch the team take down the Bruins and celebrate our seniors all in one night! The varsity team is currently ranked No. 8 in 5A, and the girls are ranked No. 13 in the state!
Basketball
The men and women travel to BA on Tuesday to take on the Tigers. Then, this Thursday- Saturday, the ladies will be traveling to Shawnee to compete in the Shawnee invitational. Also, the ladies will be making up the JV/V girls games against BTW that were canceled this past week, on 2/10 at 5 pm and 6:30 pm. Games of course will be in the Chieftain Center. We are still working on dates to make up the canceled Muskogee game, but will of course share that information with you when it is finalized. Also, the Lady Chieftains are currently ranked #2 in 5A!
The SPS Chieftain TV and Video board productions crew are growing! If you know of a 9th-12th grader that might be interested in helping with video productions, camera operations, editing, etc. please have them get in touch with Niko McWilliams or Ray Markley!
Ping Pings
The Sapulpa Ping Pings Team performed at Dance 4 A Cure on Saturday!
NFHS Partnership Program
Sapulpa Public Schools is proud to partner with the National Federation of High School Associations to live-stream all our events that take place in the Chieftain Center. We do still have Chieftain TV, but it is not possible for them to make it to every event. For events Chieftain TV is not able to make it to, those will be on the NFHS Network. Yes, there is a subscription fee for events on the NFHS Network, but a portion of every subscription comes back to the school.
* Side Note…we have NFHS cameras at Collins Football Stadium, Westside, Allen Wallace Field (baseball), AND the softball field. If you buy a subscription, it is NOT limited to that sport. You would have access to all the other sports during your subscription timeframe!
