Perkins-Tryon's Shelby Reese didn't get hit by this pitch during first inning action of last
Tuesday night's summer league game here with the Chandler Lions. The end result of the
turn at bat was a pop up to the shortstop. Reese was later hit by a pitch during third inning.
The Demons u~ed a late surge to gain an 8-2 win over the Lions.

Summer camps are a
norm during this time of
year. You can attend one
that covers just about any-
thing, especially when it
relates to an extra-curricu-
lar activity and to be more
specific, athletics.
Count me as one who
enjoyed the benefits of a
camp as well.
A trip to the University
of Oklahoma was made
last weekend for an Okla-
homa Secondary School
Activities Association
basketball officials' camp
that coincided with a high
school board team camp
hosted by OU head coach
Lon Kruger. A bit more on
him later. While it was an
enjoyable experience, it
definitely wasn't a walk in
the park.
We arrived at the Lloyd
Noble Center to check in at
7:30 a.m. last Friday. You
can guess what time I left in
order to get through Okla-
homa City and miss the
miserable morning traffic. I
was one of those who paid
their registration early and
only enjoyed the benefits of
expediting the process, but I
saved some money too.
After a breakout session
we were given our group
assignments and I didn't
have far to go for my first
game. It was the main
floor at the LNC. That's
now two major university
courts I've called in. Of
course the other is historic
Gallagher-Iba Arena. While
the Lloyd Noble Center is
nice, it doesn't compare to
GIA and maybe some bias
can be sensed by some of
you.
Each of us campers
was evaluated during the
first six games we called.
Those watching us were
among the elite of our
peers. Between them all,
there were multitudes of
experience, not to mention
state tournament appears
as well. These critiques
covered a wide range of
areas and the feedback was
great.
We got to see a lot of
pretty good teams from not
only Oklahoma, but some

The rodeo
of the surrounding states
as well. Just like us, the
players and coaches were
working to get better for
the upcoming season. There
were a few times we had to
remind them of that when a
call didn't go their way.
Not only was the time
I spent on the basketball
courts valuable, but the
time off the floor when each
