If your son is good enough, he could play football, wrestle, and play baseball at a 6A school. That’s the reality. If he’s good enough. But if he’s not at a top level in the state at any one of the 3, it won’t be an option to play whichever is the lesser of the 3 unless he’s at a smaller school with less talent.

So it begs the question, is my son good enough? I’m also not being a jerk by saying any of this. My son plays football, basketball, and baseball. He may be able to play all three as an 8th grader, possibly 9th, but unless he takes another step into that rarified air, past 9th grade he better be a top talent to continue in multiple sports. Just how it is! And last I checked, Glenpool is growing population wise. They have lost some stud athletes over the recent years but that happens everywhere when the 6A recruiters come calling.

Off topic kinda, but partially it affects it. If Glenpool would petition the county commissioner to build an overpass over 141st(similar to 151st), Glenpool would actually explode with regards to the amount of people willing to move that far south. They’re screwing themselves by keeping that stop light active there. Main artery out of Tulsa to the south and you have to stop at a freaking stoplight. Be like going northbound on 75 from Dallas and having to stop at a stoplight in Sherman.
