The Lady Eagles softball squad is putting together one of the best seasons in recent memory.

Waurika picked up a couple of victories last Thursday when Temple hosted the Lady Eagles and Geroimo.

Games that were scheduled for Monday against Frederick and Tuesday at Ryan were postponed because of rain.

The Lady Eagles and Frederick were in the second inning when rain and lightning halted the contest and after a delay another storm came through forcing the postponement.

Tuesday the Lady Eagles were set to take on Ryan, but additional rains overnight on Monday and Tuesday morning forced the game to be postponed.

In the first game last Thursday at Temple, Waurika held off Geronimo, 7-6. In the second contest, the Lady Eagles pounded Temple, 13-9.

The Lady Eagles are back on the diamond today with a contest at Grandfield.

The Lady Eagles will be on the road again Tuesday when they travel to Central High.

Next weekend the Lady Eagles will return to Temple for the Temple Invitational on Thursday and Saturday.

Waurika is 8-5 on the season heading into today’s game and just need one more win to equal the number of wins from the three previous seasons.

Waurika 13, Temple 9

The Lady Eagles used a 10-run third inning to build a big lead and held on for the win.

Temple scored three runs in the bottom of the first inning on three hits, an error and a pair of stolen bases including a steal of home. This gave the Lady Tigers a 3-0 advantge.

The Lady Eagles came back in the top of the second with a pair of tallies.

A lead-off single and a stolen base by Gracie Walling helped get the uprising started.

Alana Lewis followed with an RBI-double and she scored on Riley Howell’s run-scoring single. This trimmed the Temple lead to 3-2.

In the top of the third the Lady Eagles sent 16 players to the plate.

Aubree Showalter and Faith Roberson led off the inning with infield singles and scored on Walling’s double.

Lewis had another infield single and she scored on a single by Hope Cummings. Howell walked and Grace Hill produced a two-run single.

Faith Hill walked and eventually stole home to increase the lead to 10-3.

After two were out Roberson and Landry Forsyth came up with infield hits. Walling walked to load the bases and the back-to-back walks by Lewis and Cummings produced the final two runs of the inning that put the Lady Eagles in front, 12-3.

Temple answered with a four-run rally of their own in the bottom of third that narrowed the gap to 12-7.

The Lady Tigers added two more runs in the bottom of the fourth to close the gap to 12-9.

The Lady Eagles added a run in the top of the fifth inning as Lewis drove in Roberson with a two-base hit.

The Tigers put the lead off runner on in the bottom of the fifth, but the next three batters were retired to end the game.

Eight Waurika batters had at least one hit in the game.

Walling and Lewis led the way with 3-for-3 performances.

Lewis had three runs batted in and Walling and G. Hill each had a pair of runs batted in.

Waurika 7, Geronimo 6

Waurika had a seven-run rally in the third inning and made it stand up in picking up the win against the conference tournament champion Lady Bluejays.

Geronimo got out on top with a three-run surge in the bottom of the first inning.

Two walks, a pair of fielder’s choices and an error led to the three runs.

In the top of the third inning Faith Hill led off with a single. Aubree Showalter singles and Faith Roberson reached on an error to load the bases.

Landry Forsyth picked up an RBI-single and Gracie Walling cleared the bases with a three-run triple.

Alana Lewis followed with a run-scoring double and she scored on an error that led Hope Cummings to reach base.

Grace Hill came up with a big two-run single to center field to close out the scoring and giving the Lady Eagles a 7-3 advantage.

Geronimo picked up a run in the bottom of the third after an error and an RBI-single to trim the LadyEagles’ lead to 7-4.

There was no more scoring until the bottom of the fifth inning. Geronimo led off with a single and the runner scored on a ground out to put the score at 7-5.

A two-bagger produced another run, but the Lady Bluejays could do no more damage.

Forsyth was the big hitter for the Lady Eagles as she went 3-for-3 at the plate and had an RBI. Lewis was 2-for-3 with a run batted in. Walling finished with three runs batted in.

 The Ryan Cowgirl softball squad is making progress, but the wins continue to elude the squad after a 9-1 defeat at the hands of Grandfield Tuesday night at Larry Ninman Field.

Last Thursday’s game with Bray-Doyle was rained out.

The Cowgirls are back in action today at the Temple Invitational Tournament.

In the first round of the 14-team tourney, Ryan will face Grandfield again today at 3 p.m.

A win would mean a 5:30 p.m. bout today with the winner of Walters and Empire, while a loss means a 4:15 p.m. meeting today with the loser of Walters and Empire.

The tourney, which features four ranked teams from Classes A & B, will conclude on Saturday.

Ryan will host Waurika on Monday and will entertain Geronimo on Tuesday on Larry Ninman Field.

In Tuesday’s game with Grandfield, the 14th-ranked Lady Bearcats sent 10 batters to the plate in the top of the third inning and scored four times to take a 4-0 lead over the Cowgirls. Three doubles and three singles led to the four scores.

In the top of the fourth, Grandfield added another run to up the margin to 5-0.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, the Cowgirls got on the scoreboard with a single run.

A leadoff walk by Jasmine Villerreal got things going for the Cowgirls and that was followed by a single by Emily Harris.

After two were out, Lirin Tucker connected on a single to score Villerreal and the deficit was trimmed to 5-1.

Grandfield answered with four runs in the top of the fifth inning. A home run, two errors, two walks and a single contributed to the big inning for the Lady Bearcats.

Ryan could not score in the bottom of the fifth and the game ended on the run-rule.

Villerreal, Harris and Tucker had the only hits for the Cowgirls, who fell to 2-8 on the year heading into today’s tournament action.

Pair of Ryan Athletes Attend Sports Leadership Camp in Costa Rica

 Two Ryan student athletes recently returned from a sports leadership camp experience in Costa Rica.

Jasmine Villerreal and Alicen Williams, both students at Ryan High School, spent 10 days at the camp that is a sports leadership experience for high school female athletes.

Former Ryan athlete, Whittany Spangler, was also part of the select group of athletes chosen to participate in this elite camp.

The leadership camp is operated by Beyond Sports and was founded by two former college athletes that were inspired by the power of cross-cultural understanding through sports and wanted to create opportunities for student athletes to travel abroad and create meaningful connections and unique experiences through their sport.

Since 2010 the camp has hosted over 3,000 athletes and the facility is located within walking distance to a beach.

The Girls Leadership Academy for Service and Sport (GLASS) is the event Villerreal and Williams attended. A team of current college athletes served as mentors for the group of girls on a campus that has been developed in Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica.

Each session of the camp consists of 18 or less students and each attendee fills out an application that includes personal information, the sports they participate in and essay questions.

Based on the applications, the girls are chosen to participate at their expense in the camp. Financial assistance is available for participants.

Williams and Spangler were slated to attend last summer but the camp was canceled because of COVID-19 and this year, Villerreal decided to try and join her friends for the experience.

“I really wanted to try something new and learn more about leadership and service while being in another country,” Williams said about this unique opportunity.

Villerreal was also excited to attend this camp because of its location out of the United States.

“Stepping out of my comfort zone and traveling out of the country by myself was a big factor for me wanting to go,” Villerreal noted. “Meeting a bunch of new girls from all over was also a factor for me.”

Both girls were elated to find out they were accepted to the camp that has only a few sessions each summer.

“I was really nervous but super excited,” noted Villerreal. “I actually started packing the day I found out because I was so excited.”

Williams echoed Villerreal’s comment about finding out she had been accepted. “I was super excited to get the opportunity to go have fun and learn so much with other amazing girls.”

Each day’s activities began with a workout and then time with their appointed mentor. After breakfast the group went on an excursion.

After lunch and a short amount of free time, the girls had another workout and then conducted sports clinics in the community giving them opportunities to interact with the culture.

Following dinner, the girls engaged in a leadership development workshop each evening.

Williams and Villerreal did not have any trouble sharing the benefits from the experience.

“The camp showed me different aspects of my life I never could have seen by myself,” Villerreal explained. “Trying to be a leader is hard especially having that mindset that you have to be perfect. People tend to lose sight of who they really are when trying to be that perfect.”

“For me the greatest benefit of the week was getting to learn more leadership skills that help with serving others,” said Williams.

No doubt the camp enhanced the opportunities that await the pair of Cowgirls in the upcoming sports seasons.

Villerreal is a four-sport athlete at Ryan participating in fast-pitch softball, cross country, basketball and track.

“I carried a lot of weight on my shoulders due to lack of confidence this past year,” Villerreal said. “I realized you can’t do everything by yourself and people are going to have opinions.”

“I want to come into the year more confident and having fun,” Villerreal added. “Having fun and doing whatever you enjoy doing can change your whole perspective.”

Williams, who will be a senior for the Cowgirl cross country, basketball and track teams this coming school year came away with focus in regard to the upcoming seasons.

“I think it will help me to be a better leader for our team as well as being a good teammate,” Williams commented.

Both girls obviously took away memories from the experience that will last a lifetime.

“My greatest memory was getting to help out with the CEPIA kids,” Williams said, “I loved getting to play soccer and kickball with them and it was also so cool to see the culture down there and how others live.”

CEPIA is a non-profit organization that promotes culture and educational opportunities for the kids in Costa Rica.

Villerreal mentioned the opportunity to work with the kids but she also talked about relationships built and the opportunities to serve.

“Getting to meet everyone and becoming loser and seeing how fast e built those connections in just 10 days was amazing,” Villerreal said. “Doing services such as dog walking, environmental clean ups and helping with the kids was a great memory.”

Williams urged anyone to try to attend the camp.

“For any girl who would like to experience it, I would definitely say to go for it because I loved it such much and learned so many thing while making connections,” Williams said.

From al the comments of Williams and Villerreal, it is evident that the mission statement of GLASS – empowering the next generation of female leadership through sports, service and global engagement – was accomplished and will make a difference in their experiences in the upcoming sports seasons.

…tourney played at Waurika and Grandfield

Geronimo came away with the Southern Eight Conference tournament title with a 1-0 victory over Grandfield last Saturday.

The tournament games were held last Thursday at Waurika because of rain at Grandfield. The tourney concluded on Saturday at the original host site, Grandfield.

The Lady Blue Jays went 3-0 in the tournament to earn the championship trophy.

Frederick finished third in the tournament after winning two games in the consolation bracket, but dropping a 9-2 decision to Grandfield to give the Lady Bearcats the spot in the championship tilt.

It was a tough tournament for Waurika and Ryan.

In the first day of the tournament last Thursday, Ryan dropped two games to be eliminated.

The Cowgirls fell to Grandfield, 10-0, in the first round and then lost to Big Pasture in a consolation bracket game, 10-4.

Waurika picked up a narrow 4-3 win over Big Pasture in the first round last Thursday, but fell to Grandfield, 7-1, in the second game in Thursday’s play.

The Lady Eagles were eliminated on Thursday night with a 17-1 loss to Frederick.

Here’s a recap of the games involving Ryan and Waurika:

Frederick 17, 

Waurika 1

In the final game of the schedule last Thursday, the Lady Bombers used a big second inning to eliminate the Lady Eagles.

Frederick picked up three runs in the top of the third inning and could have had more as the first seven batters reached base.

The Lady Bombers added nine runs in the top of the second inning by sending 13 batters to the plate. Three doubles, three walks and three singles contributed to the big inning.

In the top of the third, Frederick added five more runs as the first five batters reached base and eventually scored.

Waurika got its only run in the bottom of the third inning.

Liberti Simmons singled to center and then scored on Gracie Walling’s RBI-single. Those were the only two hits of the three-inning contest for the Lady Eagles.

Grandfield 7, 

Waurika 1

In a second-round contest, the game was scoreless through the first three innings, but Grandfield erupted or three runs in the top of the fourth and four more runs in the top of the fifth for the win.

The Lady Eagles tried to rally in the bottom of the fifth inning, but could only score one run and left the bases loaded.

Simmons had a lead-off double and scored when Grace Hill got a run-scoring single to center.

Waurika 4, 

Big Pasture 3

It was a good start to the tourney for the Lady Eagles as they picked up the narrow win over Big Pasture in the first round of the tournament.

Neither team scored in the first two innings, but in the top of the fourth inning the Lady Eagles picked up all the runs they would need to get the win.

Rylee Torrez got the offense rolling in the top of the third inning when she reached base on a dropped third strike.

Aubree Showalter picked up a single to right and Simmons had an RBI-single that scored Torrez.

Riley Howell had an RBI-single to right that scored Showalter and that was followed by consecutive singles by Walling and Alana Lewis.

Howell and Walling both scored by stealing home to give Waurika a 4-0 advantage.

The Lady Rangers answered in the bottom of the third with the big blow being a two-run double.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, the Lady Rangers threatened again.

After a run had scored and Big Pasture had runners on second and third an attempted steal of home to try to tie the score failed and the next batter grounded out to preserve the win for the Lady Eagles.

Howell picked up the win for the Lady Eagles in the circle. She had four strikeouts. Simmons came on in the fifth inning to pick up a save.

Big Pasture 10, 

Ryan 4

The Cowgirls held an early 3-0 lead but could not hold on issuing eight free passes to Big Pasture batters in a consolation bracket contest.

In the top half of the opening inning, Lirin Tucker, Libby Carter and Jasmine Villerreal all reached base and came around to score to put the Cowgirls on top, 3-0.

The lead did not last long, however, as Big Pasture struck for five runs in the bottom of the inning and never trailed the rest of the way.

The Lady Rangers added to the lead in the bottom of the second inning with a pair of scores to increase the lead to 7-3.

The Cowgirls were able to get another run in the top of the third inning when Tucker led off the inning by reaching base and eventually scoring to narrow the game to 7-4.

In the bottom of the third inning, the Lady Rangers added three more runs to earn the victory that was halted after three innings because of the time limit.

Grandfield 10, 

Ryan 0

In the first-round encounter with the Lady Bearcats, the Cowgirls could not get anything going at the plate as only two batters reached base.

Grandfield’s first six batters walked and four runs scoring in the inning.

The Lady Bearcats added two runs in the second inning and four runs in the third inning to secure the win after three innings because of the run rule.

New Grid Districts Finalized for 2022-2023

 The high school football season is just around the corner, but some of the talk around the state is about the future.

Last week the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association approved the new district pairings for the 2022 and 2023 football seasons.

All three Jefferson County schools will be playing in the same class they are competing in during the upcoming 2021 football season.

The district pairings, however, will not be same as a result of changing average daily membership figures used to determine classes.

Waurika will again be competing in District B-3.

The Eagles, however, will welcome into the district the two largest eight-man football schools – Velma-Alma and Wilson.

In addition to those schools, Waurika will have Alex, Cyril and Central High to battle for playoff berths.

Gone from the Waurika district is Tipton, Empire and Snyder.

Snyder and Empire were forced to return to the 11-man game and will be competing in Class A for 2022 and 2023.

Tipton, one of the favorites to win District B-3 this fall, will drop to Class C which is comprised of the 32 smallest eight-man schools.

The Eagles will be renewing an old rivalry when they play Velma-Alma in 2022.

The Eagles and Comets have not met on the gridiron since the 2011 season – the last season Waurika competed in 11-man football.

The two schools met every year in football from 1953 to 2011. Velma-Alma leads the series 36-25-2 with the first meeting coming in 1948.

Ryan will remain in Class C for the 2022 and 2023 football seasons.

The Cowboys will compete in District C-2 with seven others schools.

Tipton will join this district as they move down from Class B.

Bray-Doyle is also moving down to Class C and will be in the Cowboys’ district.

Geary and Corn Bible will be the other two new members of the district.

Grandfield, Temple and Mountain View-Gotebo will join the Cowboys and the other four teams.

The Cowboys will continue the long running rivalries with Grandfield and Temple.

Ryan and Temple have met a total of 87 times since the first meeting in 1921.

This season will be the 41st consecutive meeting between the two schools.

Grandfield and Ryan first met in football in 1923. The Bearcats and Cowboys will meet for the 40th straight year this season.

Fox, Maysville, Paoli and Thackerville – current members of District C-2 – will be moving over to the east side of the state for the next two seasons.

Two of the smallest football schools are part of District C-2.

Corn Bible is the fifth smallest eight-man school, while Temple is the seventh smallest school in Class C.

New to the eight-man ranks in Oklahoma for the 2022 season will be Hollis, Drumright and Okeene.

Hollis and Okeene have played independent schedules the past two years, but will be competing for a district title in the 2022 season.

Ringling, which has been a perennial contender for a state title in Class A in football, will be the smallest 11-man football school in Oklahoma.

Ringling’s recent average daily membership figure is smaller than 17 schools that will be competing in Class B in 2022.

The Blue Devils will be in District A-4 during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

Joining Ringling in the district will be Dibble, Wynnewood, Stratford, Elmore City-Pernell, Healdton, Rush Springs and Wayne.

STATE BOUND: Waurika’s girls cross country squad finished seventh in the team competition at last Saturday’s Class 2A Regional meet held in Waurika and that qualified them for the state cross country meet.

Not pictured is Harleigh Loftis and Aubree Showalter, who did not compete in the regional because of an illness. (Photo provided)

The Waurika girls cross country team has overcome a number of obstacles during the 2022 season.

For most of the season, the Lady Eagles did not have enough participants to qualify for the team race in the majority of meets they participated in.

But, in the last few weeks, the Lady Eagles have had additional participants that have enabled them to be part of the team standings.

While still battling some illness, the Lady Eagles managed to finish seventh in last Saturday’s Class 2A Regional Cross Country Meet and that put the Lady Eagles into Saturday’s state championship meet.

The Class 2A State Cross Country Meet will be Saturday at Edmond Santa Fe High School. All classes will be held at the same location.

The Class 2A races will begin with the girls at 11:45 a.m., while the Class 2A boys will race at 12:15 p.m. An awards ceremony for Class 2A will follow at 1 p.m.

The top three teams will be awarded medals and 15 medals will be awarded to the top individual finishers.

Lucas Boyd, who has had an outstanding freshman season for the Eagles, qualified for the state meet as an individual and will be competing Saturday as well as the Lady Eagle team.

The Lady Eagles finished with 181 points – which trailed sixth-place Hobart that finished with 172 points. Riverside won the team title with 55 points.

Aubree Showalter, who has competed for the Lady Eagles in recent weeks, missed the meet due to illness and that meant other runners had to step up to enable Waurika to qualify for the state meet.

Waurika’s Jaci Gholson led the way for the Lady Eagles as she finished sixth in the meet with a time of 13:42.04 – which is her top time of the 2022 season.

The Waurika junior has had an outstanding season and she received a silver medal for her performance in the regional meet on the Lady Eagles’ home course – Harmon Park.

Also playing a key role in the Lady Eagles qualifying for the state meet were Harleigh Loftis, Liberti Simmons, Jaden Adams, Niecsa Camarillo and Jasmine Henry.

Loftis finished 67th in the race with a time of 16;24.74, while Simmons was 71st with a clocking of 16:34.71. Adams was 87th with a time of 17:32.15 and Camarillo finished 109th with a time of 20:16.18. Henry was 118th recorded a time of 23:05.23.

The top five finishers from each school figure into the team standings.

A total of 126 runners competed in the Class 2A girls’ race.

Boyd finished 11th in the boys’ competition and he was the fourth best individual that was not part of the team competition and the top seven individuals not on a team qualify for the state meet.

Boyd earned a bronze medal with his time of 19:28.45.

Alex Gomez and Trent Arellano also ran in the regional for the Eagles.

Gomez finished 17th with a time of 19:39.67 – just two seconds behind the last individual qualifier for the state meet.

Arellano turned in a time of 23:25.29 and that was good for 80th place among the 112 runners in the Class 2A race.

Class 2A had considerably more participants than the Class 3A and Class 4A races.

Cowboys Falter In Regional Tourney To End Roundball Season

….Sickness Hits Squad at Critical Time in the Season

The Ryan Cowboys boys’ basketball season came to an end last weekend as they dropped two straight in the Class B Regional Tournament.

 In last Thursday’s winners’ bracket contest, Big Pasture rolled to a 56-26 victory at Fox.

 Last Friday in the consolation bracket semifinals, Ryan fell to Alex, 60-29, on the Longhorns’ home floor.

The Cowboys battled illness that hit the squad in the early part of the week leading up to the regional tourney  and continued through the tourney.

Ryan’s boys finish with a 14-9 mark for the 2022 season.

The signal that the end of the season was imminent came early in Friday’s game with Alex.

The Longhorns opened the game on a 13-0 scoring blitz and finished the first quarter with an 18-2 advantage thanks to three treys.

Early in the second quarter the lead increased to 21-2 before the Cowboys could stop the Longhorn scoring barrage.

The energy-depleted Cowboys simply had no answer for the Longhorns the rest of the way.

The Cowboys rallied a bit in the second quarter, but still trailed, 33-11, at the break.

The two teams battled on near-even terms in the third quarter as Alex outscored the Cowboys only by a 14-12 margin but the lead of 47-23 was insurmountable.

The Longhorns closed out the fourth quarter with a 13-6 scoring advantage to set the final score.

Julian Rodriguez was the top scorer for the Cowboys with 12 points, but no other Cowboy was in double figures.

Landen Alexander led the squad in rebounding with eight.

The Cowboys committed 25 turnovers in the contest and shot only 28% from the field including only two of 21 from beyond the arc.

In Thursday’s contest with Big Pasture the Cowboys fell behind 6-0 on consecutive three-pointers by the Rangers in the first 90 seconds of the game, but Ryan rallied a bit through the rest of the quarter.

The two teams actually played on even terms the rest of the quarter.

Westin Jennings got Ryan on the scoreboard with a reverse layup that cut the Ranger lead to 6-2, but another trey gave Big Pasture a 9-2 advantage.

After a pair of free throws by Jennings, the Rangers got two layups and with 3:40 left in the first quarter the Rangers had extended the lead to 13-4.

The Cowboys finished off the quarter with a modest 6-3 scoring advantage and after Xavier Guzman’s short jumper at the 2:08 mark, Ryan trailed, 16-10.

That is the way the first quarter ended.

The game was essentially put out of reach early in the second quarter as the Rangers went on a 12-1 run that put the Big Pasture lead at 28-11.

Guzman’s layup with 28 seconds to play in the half brought the Big Pasture lead down to 15, 32-17, and that is the way the half ended.

The Rangers continued to dominate throughout the third quarter as they outscored the Cowboys, 12-5, to obtain a 44-22 advantage at the end of the period.

Big Pasture continued to increase the lead early in the fourth quarter and the Cowboys simply did not have much left to give as the Rangers outscored Ryan, 12-4, to get the victory and move into the regional finals.

The Cowboys battled the Rangers on the board as both teams had 36 rebounds, but Ryan committed 29 turnovers to only 14 for the 11th-ranked Rangers.

Guzman led the Cowboys in scoring with 12 points and he was also the top rebounder for Ryan with nine rebounds.

It was a dismal shooting night for the Cowboys, however, as they connected on only 26% of their field goal attempts and were only four of 11 from the charity stripe.

REGIONAL TOURNEY RAMBLINGS: The Cowboys have not fared well in regional tournament play over the past few years as Ryan has now lost 15 straight games in regional tourney play….The last win in a regional tourney came in 2006 when they topped Big Pasture….The Cowboys are 31-44 in 41 appearances in the regional tourney with the first appearance coming in 1942….Ryan is now 1-1 against Big Pasture in regional tourney meetings and is 0-1 against Alex in regional tourney play….The 14 wins by the Cowboys in the 2022 season are the most since the 2017 campaign…The nine losses is tied for the fewest losses in a season since 2005 when the Cowboys lost only seven games….Lane Weldon made a return to Ryan this season to coach both the Cowboys and Cowgirls and as coach of the Cowboys Weldon has had only one losing season in 11 years….Under Weldon, the Cowboys have a 178-105 record in all games….Alexander and Jennings made their last appearance in a Cowboy basketball uniform in last Friday’s game.

Eagles Paste Destiny In First Road Trip of the Year

…Trip to Del City Ends with Mercy Rule Victory at the Half

 An array of big plays and four turnovers by Destiny Christian allowed Waurika to post an impressive 56-6 victory over the Wildcats in Del City last Friday night.

The game ended at halftime because of the mercy rule.

Every touchdown for the Eagles was 22 yards or more and four of them were 50 yards or more – including a 68-yard fumble return by Isaac Camarillo.

The Wildcat defense provided little resistance as the Eagles ran only 23 offensive plays in the one half of play and one of those was a punt and six others were scoring plays.

Meanwhile the Eagle defense produced four turnovers – three of which were interceptions.

Waurika scored four times in the first quarter and three more in the second quarter to record its first win of the year.

Camarillo started the scoring barrage at the 10:46 mark of the first quarter when he hauled in a 35-yard scoring pass from Treyton Torrez. Trent Arellano ran for the two-point conversion to give the Eagles an early 8-0 advantage.

Jake Smart scored the first of his two touchdowns for the next Waurika score. His 22-yard scoring run was the shortest scoring play of the night and came with 6:52 left in the first quarter. Smart added the two-point conversion and Waurika was in front, 16-0.

T. Torrez got his first of two rushing touchdowns for the next Waurika score. The Waurika quarterback busted free for a 67-yard scoring jaunt and Smart ran for the two points and with 3:14 left in the quarter Waurika built a 24-0 lead.

Destiny Christian got on the scoreboard for the only time with just 12 seconds left in the first quarter. Dennis Dibie caught a 32-yard scoring pass from Jason Ramsey. The try for two failed, but the Wildcats had cut the lead to 24-6.

The Eagles were not done scoring as they took possession following the kickoff at the Destiny Christian 48 and on the first play T. Torrez found Gavin Torrez for a 48-yard pass and catch as time expired in the first quarter. When T. Torrez ran for the two points, the first quarter ended with Waurika in front, 32-6.

 Early in the second quarter, T. Torrez got away from the Wildcats again and he sped 50 yards for the touchdown. Smart ran for the two points and with 8:27 remaining before halftime, the Eagles had increased the lead to 40-6.

The Wildcats began a drive on their next possession, but it ended when Camarillo picked up a fumble and raced 68 yards for the score. Arellano added the two-point conversion and with 5:48 left in the second quarter Waurika had upped the margin to 48-6.

The final score of the night came after another Wildcat turnover. This time it was Smart who broke free and rambled 55 yards for the score with 5:04 left before intermission. When Gunner Myers ran for the two points, the final margin was set.

Smart and T. Torrez each eclipsed the 100-yard rushing mark. Smart had just five carries for 137 yards, while T. Torrez racked up 108 yards on only four carries.

The Eagles used the big plays to compile 264 yards rushing on only 16 attempts or a 16.5 per carry average.

EAGLE FLIGHTS: The Eagles are now 1-1 on the season and will take a week off before entertaining Grandfield on September 16 for homecoming….The Bearcats are 1-1 heading this week’s game with Fox and they broke an 11-game losing streak with their win over Paoli last Friday night….The 56 points scored by the Eagles last Friday marks the 18th time the Eagles have scored 56 or more points  under fifth-year head coach Joe Allen….The 56 points scored is the most since the Eagles put up 66 points last season against Canton….It is the 27th time since Waurika began eight-man play that the Eagles have scored 56 points or more in a game….This was the first meeting with a private school since a 2020 playoff game with Southwest Covenant and the first regular season meeting with a private school since a 54-6 loss to Oklahoma City Christian Academy in the 2013 season….Waurika is 4-2 in school history against private schools and if you add in meetings in the past with Ft. Sill and Riverside Indian Schools and Oklahoma School for the Deaf, Waurika is 11-2 in meetings against private schools….Only three times in 11 years of eight-man football has Waurika managed to win its first two games and it has happened only 19 times in school history…Smart’s 137 yards rushing marks his second straight game as an Eagle with 100+ yards.

Season Ends For Eagles Basketball Squad In Regional Tourney

GERONIMO – What was a tough season for the Waurika boys hoopsters ended here last Thursday night in the Class A Regional Tournament.

 The Eagles fell in the consolation quarterfinals to Empire, 52-49.

In two previous meetings with the Bulldogs, the Eagles were dominated, but not on this afternoon contest in the Geronimo Dome.

 The Eagles led or were tied with the Bulldogs until the final 20 seconds in the heart-breaking loss in Thursday’s game.

 The Eagles got off to a good start with offensive rebounds and put backs by Treyton Torrez and Slade Cathey to give Waurika 4-0 lead with 6:27 left in the first quarter.

The rest of the period was a battle, but after Torrez hit a 10-footer at the 1:19 mark, Waurika held a 13-6 advantage.

 Empire, however, scored the final five points of the quarter and trimmed the Waurika lead to 13-11.

 At the beginning of the second quarter the Eagles took charge as they went on a 11-0 run that was capped by Isaac Camarillo’s layup at the 4:54 mark of the period. This gave Waurika a 24-11 lead – their biggest lead of the game.

Waurika went cold for the rest of the half and Empire chipped away at the lead as the Bulldogs outscored the Eagles, 9-2, the rest of the second quarter and trailed only 26-20 at the break.

The Eagles built another big lead in the opening minutes of the third quarter with a 12-5 scoring run that gave Waurika a 38-25 lead with 4:24 remaining in the quarter.

The Bulldogs once again battled back and when Mcray Weber hit a three-pointer with 37.7 seconds left in the quarter, Empire had trimmed the Eagle advantage to 41-34.

A pair of free throws by the Bulldogs pulled Empire to within five to open the fourth quarter, but Malachi Dodson answered for the Eagles with a three-pointer and with 6:35 left in the game, Waurika led, 44-36.

As they had throughout the game, the Bulldogs put on a scoring burst and this time the Eagles could not keep pace.

From the 6:35 mark to the final 30 seconds, the Eagles managed only three points. Meanwhile the Bulldogs began to hit from the outside and converted five free throws until, at the 1:03 mark, Empire tied the game at 47-47.

The final minute was a flurry of activity. Waurika missed a trey and Empire grabbed the rebound and after the Bulldogs missed a field goal attempt, Torrez was fouled on the rebound and he connected on two free throws with 30.2 seconds left to give the Eagles a 49-47 lead.

After a Waurika timeout, Empire quickly moved down the court and after a couple of passes found Weber open at the top of the key where he nailed a three-point to put Empire in front, 50-49, with 20 seconds showing on the clock.

 The Bulldogs called timeout, but Waurika had an opportunity for a final shot. A missed three-pointer went awry with five seconds to go and as Empire grabbed the rebound a foul was whistled on Waurika as well as a technical foul.

This gave Empire four free throw attempts with 2.4 seconds left and the Bulldogs hit two of four to provide the final margin.

The main reason the Eagles were able to stay in the game was their domination on the boards. The Eagles outrebounded Empire, 36-20, for the game.

But, in the final quarter when the Bulldogs made the final surge, the Eagles were outrebounded, 8-3.

Torrez led the Eagles in scoring with 22 points, but he was the only Eagle in double figures.

Empire was eliminated from the playoffs last Friday night as the Bulldogs fell to Oklahoma Christian Academy, 51-31.

Waurika finished the season with a 6-17 record, but the Eagles were extremely competitive in five of the last seven games of the season and for the most part were playing their best basketball of the season down the stretch.

EAGLE REGIONAL RUMBLINGS AND MORE: This was the first regional tournament appearance for a Waurika boys’ basketball team since 2019….Overall, the Eagles have made 47 appearances in regional tournament play with the first appearance coming in 1929….Waurika is now 42-46 in all regional tournament games…Waurika is 0-2 against Empire in regional tournament play….The Eagles are now 4-2 against the Bulldogs in all playoff basketball games… In the two previous meetings with Empire this season the Eagles gave up six and seven three-pointers, but allowed only four treys to Empire in the regional tourney game – but the final trey by Empire was the difference maker in the contest….The Eagles were only 2-8 this season when giving up six or more three-pointers in a game….The six wins for the Eagles is the fewest since the Eagles won only four contests in 2018….The 17 losses is the most since the Eagles had 18 losses in the 2018 season….Garret Bachand completed his third season and he is 33-36 as coach of the Eagles with this season being the only non-winning season in his tenure as coach of the Eagles….The Eagles won three of their first four games, but only three of their final 16 contests.

…Waurika downs host school in title game

Three wins in three days gave the Waurika Lady Eagles the tournament championship of the Southwest Shootout hosted by Chattanooga last weekend.

The Lady Eagles rolled to wins over Big Pasture and Grandfield and then held off the host school in the title game, 51-47.

It was the second year in a row the Lady Eagles have won this tournament – defeating Chattanooga both times in the championship game.

The Waurika boys had a tougher time in the tourney as they fell to Alex in the first round and then edged Grandfield in the consolation semifinals before falling to Chattanooga in the consolation finals.

Lady Eagles 65, Lady Rangers 20

There was never any doubt in this first-round contest last Thursday as Waurika roared to a 23-2 first quarter advantage.

Six different Lady Eagles scored in the first quarter including Liberti Simmons’ nine points.

The Lady Eagles increased the lead at the half by outscoring the Lady Rangers, 14-6, and Waurika went to the locker room with a 37-8 advantage.

In the third quarter, the Lady Eagles continued the surge with a 17-7 run that left Big Pasture trailing, 54-15.

Waurika increased the final margin by outscoring the Lady Rangers, 11-5, in the final frame.

Four Lady Eagles scored in double figures led by Simmons who had 21 tallies. Aubree Showalter added 11 points and Jasmine Henry and Cassidie Berry each poured in 10 points.

Alex 56, Eagles 47

Despite Treyton Torrez ripping the nets for 30 points, the Eagles fell in the first round to the Longhorns.

The contest was close throughout, but ultimately the Longhorns held off the Eagles.

Alex held a slim 10-9 advantage after one quarter, but stretched the lead to 24-15 at the intermission.

The Longhorns increased the lead to 39-28 by outscoring the Eagles, 15-13, in the third quarter.

The Eagles tried to rally in the fourth quarter and outscored the Longhorns, 19-17, but it was not enough to overcome the deficit established through the first three quarters.

Malachi Dodson was the only other Eagle in double figures with 10 points and only four Eagles scored in the contest.

Lady Eagles 61, Grandfield 38

In Friday’s semifinal contest, the Lady Eagles used a strong second half performance to earn a spot in the championship game.

The Lady Eagles were able to build a 15-11 lead in the first quarter and upped the advantage to 31-23 by outscoring the Lady Bearcats, 16-12.

Simmons led the offensive attack in the first half as she scored 21 of her game-high 30 points in the first two periods.

The third quarter proved to be a difference maker as Waurika outscored the Lady Bearcats, 17-7, to carry a 48-30 lead into the final quarter.

The Lady Eagles extended the lead in the fourth quarter with a 13-8 scoring edge that set the final margin.

No other Waurika player scored in double figures, but the Lady Eagles had a total of eight players enter the scoring column in the contest.

Eagles 58, Grandfield 57

In Friday’s consolation semifinal game, a buzzer-beater by Torrez lifted the Eagles to the one-point win and a spot in the consolation finals.

The Eagles trailed the Bearcats, 16-15, after one quarter.

Grandfield had a big second quarter as they outscored the Eagles, 20-9, to hold a 36-24 lead at the half.

The Eagles heated up, however, in the third quarter behind an 11-point outburst by Torrez.

Waurika used the big third quarter to outscore Grandfield, 19-13, and cut the deficit to 49-43 heading to the final period.

The game was back and forth throughout the final quarter and Grandfield took a 57-56 lead with less than five seconds left on the clock.

Here is where Torrez took over the game. Torrez took the inbounds pass and dribbled the length of the court before pulling up for a 16-foot jumper that was nothing but net lifting Waurika to the victory.

Torrez finished with 31 points and Jake Smart added 15 points for the Eagles.

Lady Eagles 51, Chatty 47

In the championship game on Saturday evening, the Lady Eagles nailed a couple of free throws in the final minute to seal the tourney title.

Waurika held an 8-7 lead after the first period and both teams scored 13 points each in the second quarter that gave Waurika a slim 21-20 edge at halftime.

Chattanooga managed to outscore the Lady Eagles, 12-11, in the third quarter that knotted the score heading into the final quarter at 32-32.

The Lady Eagles outscored the Lady Warriors, 19-15, in the final frame to earn the tourney title.

With the Lady Eagles clinging to a 49-47 advantage, Beckah Mastka stepped to the free throw line and nailed two of two free throws that established the final margin. It was Mastka’s only two points of the game.

Simmons paced the Lady Eagles in scoring for the third game in three days as she finished with 18 points. Showalter added 11 points and Berry had 10 points – including six points in the fourth quarter.

Chatty 53, Eagles 46

The Eagles fell behind the Warriors in the first quarter and struggled throughout the rest of the contest.

The Warriors opened up a 13-5 advantage after the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the Warriors increased the lead by outscoring the Eagles, 14-13, to gain a 27-18 advantage at halftime.

The Warriors increased the lead in the third quarter with an 18-11 scoring advantage that left the Eagles trailed, 45-29.

The Eagles put on a rally in the fourth quarter by outscoring the Warriors, 17-8, but it was not enough and the Warriors earned the consolation title.

Torrez finished the game with 29 points, but no other Eagle managed to get into double figures.
