Heavy Load Passing Through |
This 754,000 pound heat exchanger (being moved from Locust Grove to the Port of Catoosa) got stuck in Collinsville this morning trying to enter the southbound entrance ramp to Highway 169 from 146th St. North. I first heard about it about 11:30am and they were backing it up by the time I got there. I didn't stay to see if they tried again or looked for a different path. -- Ted 12:30pm Friday Oct. 9, 2015 |
Chili Pepper Cross Country Meet |
Ted, Just wanted to let you know the boy's cross country team competed against more than 800 other runners in the Chili Pepper Festival this past weekend in Fayetteville Arkansas. Zac Sellers took home a 15th place finish in the Varsity Boy's Open race. Very proud of how our team competed on a national level. -- Coach Dutton -- (10/6/2015) |
Cardinal
Football -- (Pryor) Jr. High Update -- 10-2-15 |
The Collinsville Cardinals
Jr. High Football teams flew into Pryor-Creek Stadium Thursday Night
for a Metro Lakes Conference showdown. The rather large Pryor Tigers
gave the Cardinals all we wanted in each contest. Each game demonstrated
the tenacity of the Cardinals offense and defense to knock the stripes
off of the Tigers. The modified pistol offense of the Tigers was difficult
to stop in each game, but the swarming defense of the Cardinals proved
that we were the better team in each game. The Pryor Tigers middle school
band didnt make things any easier. They played songs and did cheers
all night long adding to the enthusiasm of the Tigers. No injuries were
reported. 7th grade win a tough one 22-0. 8th grade win a close one 20-14. 9th grade win big 19-8. I would like to thank the parents for the drinks and snacks after the games. The snacks were just enough to get us home. The Moms and Dads do so much for our program. Without you it would be very difficult to make things more enjoyable for our kids. Also on a personal note, a good friend of mine, Robert Newton, whom I coached with years ago at Owasso High school, attended our games last night. It was a real surprise to see Coach Newton. Robert is now retired and sells real estate in the Owasso area. Next Thursday the Cardinals travel to Glenpool for another Metro Lakes Conference match-up. The Warriors are the newest addition to the conference. Glenpool has a new state of the art football facility just off Highway 75 and Hwy 67. Hope to see you there.

Cardinal
Football -- (Glenpool) Jr. High Update -- 10-9-2015 |
The Collinsville
Cardinals Jr. High football teams traveled to Glenpool Thursday night
to play the newest member of the Metro Lakes Conference. Glenpool will
be a new member to class 5A football next year. The Warriors have an
excellent football program from top to bottom, their players play with
class and their coachs coach with class. All three games of the
night were full of big hits and just plain smash-mouth football.
7th grade Cardinals
win 24-6 Next week is fall
break. The Cardinals will practice Monday and Tuesday. There will be
no Jr. High practice or Jr. High games during the break. On the Monday
after fall break, October 19, we will start practice at 7:30am for 7th
and 8th grade players. There just is not enough daylight. Hope to see you there with your positive support. We have so much to be thankful for. Coachm up |
