On Friday March 1st, the Boys Merritt Oilers team earned their ticket to the State Tournament by defeating the Central Sallisaw Tigers in a very close game ending 42-40 at the Stride Center in Enid, OK. The first game of the State Tournament was on Wednesday, at 9:00 p.m., so there was no time for this article to get the results, which will be published on the edition of March 16. Top scorers for the Oilers were Luke Peffer with 17, Caden Smith with 11 and Joshua Ligo with 8. With the game going to the last few seconds, both teams had a chance to win, but Oilers prevailed with a great defense and great shooting when it counted. 03/08/2024 11:00 PM
SOCCER… AKA “Futbol”
SOCCER… AKA “Futbol”
Futbol is the team sport most played around the world, yet, it is not as popular in the United States. Many highs schools do not have a soccer team, let alone two, as Elk City High School has. Probably the reason is that sports fans think that futbol is boring because usually there are very few scores made, as it is not uncommon to have games of 0-0, 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1; but, in the opinion of fans, that is exactly what makes it interesting, because it is so difficult to score. Proudly, Elk City High School has both, a girls’ team and a boys’ team. The boys are coached by Jason Xenos, and the girls are coached by Zak Stamm. 03/08/2024 11:00 PM
