Football
Speaking of football, the Chieftains BATTLED the #2 ranked Del City Eagles last Friday. They held this high-scoring offense to one of the lowest-scoring games they’ve had all year. While the outcome wasn’t what we wanted, we couldn’t be more proud of the fight and determination in this team. Glenpool travels to town this Friday. We hope to see you there!
Volleyball
The Lady Chieftain volleyball team yet AGAIN has earned the right to host a regional tournament! Games are tomorrow (Monday 10/9) in the Chieftain Center.
Game 1: Sapulpa vs. El Reno – 4:30pm
Game 2: Lawton Mac vs. Southeast – 6pm

Here’s to looking for a three-peat on being regional champions and another trip to the state tournament!
