Only 4 weeks left in the regular season. I'll admit I'm biased, but man this grade is FUN to watch! Full of great teams, players, coaches, and parents. Keep workin!
D1
The much anticipated matchup between Norman and Piedmont didn't disappoint. Norman flexed their muscles en route to a two score victory and a stranglehold on the #1 spot in the division. Piedmont can clinch the #2 seed with a win this weekend. Stillwater is finished with division play and is #3 this week. Yukon has only played one game, and can't be eliminated yet, but appears to be a longshot to get in. Enter Choctaw. The one team that can shake things up. And it all revolves around 1 game. Their upcoming game against Piedmont. A Wildcat win not only secures them of the #2 seed, but also sharpies in Stillwater as the #3 with the H2H over Choctaw. I'm pullin for ya Gold!
1. Norman Twolves 3-0 +24
2. Piedmont 2-1 +8
3. Stillwater Blue 3-2 +7
Still in contention:
Choctaw Gold 1-1 +1
Yukon Red 0-1 -8

Edmond Wolves
Key Games this week: Choctaw Gold vs Piedmont
D2
Just another day at the office for Edmond as their latest win locked them in to the #1 spot. They have Choctaw left to play, before they finish with 3 non division games. Yukon will be the #2 seed. That leaves 4 teams vying for the last spot. Stilly holds that spot for now, but with such disparity in division games played, there is a lot that can still happen. The Westmoore/Norman game this week looks to be an elimination game. In my opinion, the regular season finale between Choctaw and Stilly will determine the #3 seed.
1. Edmond Bulldogs 4-0 +32 CLINCHED
2. Yukon White 4-1 +21 CLINCHED
3. Stillwater Gold 1-2 -9
Still in contention:
Choctaw Blue 0-1 -6
Westmoore 0-2 -16
Norman Tigers 0-3 -22

D3
Some very important games upcoming in D3. Jenks and Glenpool both picked up huge wins over potential playoff contenders this weekend. They are on a collision course to play for the #1 spot, and are both chompin at the bit for their week 7 matchup. Owasso and McAlester hook up this week in what's more than likely an elimination game. BA White still controls their own destiny as they seek a 3rd straight playoff berth, but will need to beat both Mac and O-White. But I very well could see a 3 way tie for that 3rd spot, meaning gotta capitalize on the +8/-8.. U-Black is hangin by a thread. BA Chrome and the Gee have been eliminated.
1. Jenks Maroon 3-0 +22
2. Glenpool 3-0 +17
3.Owasso White 2-1 +10

D4
BA Black is the only undefeated team left in the division, but have 3 prime time matchups remaining. The win over LC looks to be a big one. After the top spot, it gets interesting, as there's 4 teams sitting at 2-1. Coweta holds the #2 for now, besting the others on marginal points. But they still have BA Black, Bixby, and LC to play. LC is #3 this week, and has already gotten BA and Bixby out the way. Bixby and Jenks are on the outside looking in this week, but are still in control of their own destiny as every week is a big one in D4. I pinpoint the Coweta/Bixby game to be the key in deciding the #3 spot, but we'll see what happens! (P.S. That Coweta/Jenks game had me on the edge of me seat. Big time kick #8!)
1. BA Black 3-0 +21
2. Coweta Black 2-1 +15
3. Lincoln Christian 2-1 +11
Still in contention:
Bixby Red 2-1 +6
Jenks White 2-1 +3

Owasso Black
Key Games this week: Coweta Black vs BA Black
D5
No surprises here as Bixby and TYAA stay on course for a week 8 winner take all (#1 seed) game. They've maxed out their 3 games they've played and don't see that changing these next 2 weeks. It appears U-Silver has the best chances of earning the #3 seed, especially now after holding the H2H over Sand Springs. Sand Springs needs to win out, and have some help. Maybe Jenks or the BA's can upset U-Silver to create a little madness.
1. Bixby Blue 3-0 +24
1. TYAA 3-0 +24
3.Union Silver 2-1 +8
Still in contention:
Sand Springs 2-1 +8

AA1
That Pryor defense threw up another shutout, as they've gone 19 quarters straight without allowing a point. I'm telling ya, HH scoring that first drive of the season really ticked em off! After an 0-2 start against AA2, Verdy has caught fire and reeled off 3 straight wins to have them in the #2 spot this week. Like Pryor, Hilldale's defense has led the charge through 5 games, as they sit 2-0. They finish the year against the upper half of the division (Pryor, Verdy, and Bville).. Bville, Coweta, and Sequoyah will all be vying for that last spot. Will be exciting to watch it all play out!
1. Pryor 3-0 +23
2. Verdigris 3-0 +22
3. Hilldale 2-0 +13
4. Bartlesville Blue 1-1 0

AA2
Berryhill is a perfect 5-0, 3-0 in the division and sit in the #1 spot. They have an intriguing non division game against Pryor this week. Collinsville is #2, and are trying to get better every week. BK can trade places with the Birds come next week with a win Saturday.. South Tulsa has a hold on the final playoff spot for now, but some big time games looming.. HH, Sapulpa, and Bville are on the outside looking in, but don't count them out just yet. HH had an 11 point 4th qtr lead at one point on B'Hill, while Bville lost another heartbreaker this past week to a solid BK squad. Their 3 division losses are- 13-6, 6-0, and 10-6. These teams can play!
1. Berryhill 3-0 +15
2. Collinsville 2-0 +16
3. Bishop Kelley 2-1 +6
