We have several Elk City Athletes who play at various colleges around the state and elsewhere. We would like to get information from their parents, teachers or relatives about them or their team performances for local information.
To our knowledge, there are four golfers playing for different colleges: Tate Trotter (University of Science and Arts, Chickasha, OK), Ryder Cowan (Oklahoma University), Nathan Womack (University of Central Missouri) and Tres Hill (Oklahoma City University).
Golf, baseball, and track and field have been good in Elk City for furthering education past high school. Others who have gone on to play sports in college from Elk City include Drake Hughes (Baseball), and Kelsi Wilson (golf), Joby Gray (golf) and sisters Haley and Tori Gunkel, now married, successful and with children.
