Lawton Eisenhower vs Lawton MacArthur
Ike made a big statement last week by coming to the OKC area and cruising past Del City 40-13 behind a stout defense that shut down blue-chip QB Terry Wilson and the Eagles. MacArthur hung on for a dramatic 35-33 victory against Lawton High to start its season 2-0.
Newcastle at Blanchard
The Racers had an impressive win in week two, ripping rival Tuttle 45-13. It’s their first win in 11 years against the Tigers, spurred by a big game from quarterback Casey Freeman. Now they get the other third of the Tri-City rivalry in the Lions, who defeated Tuttle in the season opener but fell 43-21 to Casady last week.
Heritage Hall at Davis
Two of the most successful programs of the past decade renew their rivalry with a cross-class game. Heritage Hall rolled past Clinton a week ago, while Davis defeated local rival Sulphur in one of south-central Oklahoma’s biggest games.
Several other good ones in the southwest this week include Beaver at Hollis, Walters at Snyder and Elgin at Tuttle.
