Perkins-Tryon defensive back Quincy Mouton leaps to deflect a pass intended
for a Mount
St. Mary receiver during last Friday night’s game in Oklahoma City. The

OKLAHOMA CITY —
Generally speaking when
a team makes one big play,
a big momentum shift
will follow. For the Per-.
kins-Tryon Demons in their
District 3A-1 clash with
Mount St. Mary, a pair of
them by sophomore Quincy
Mouton paved the way in
the 34-3 win over the Rock-
ets last Friday night.
Next up for the Demons
will be 'a much-deserved
return to McIlvain Field
tonight to host the King—
fisher Yellowjackets in a
game that could decide the
second place district finish
and a first round playoff ’
home game. The kickoff is
set for 7 pm. and will be
broadcast on KGFY 105.5
FM with the pregame show
at 6:30 pm.
This was a much—im-
proved Mount St. Mary
team the Demons faced.
In previous meetings, the
majority of the outcomes
were determined by half-
time. Not so this year as
the Demons were clinging
to a 7—3 halftime lead and
momentum shifting to favor
the host Rockets. Penalties
on the defense enabled

OKLAHOMA CITY ~
A late rally fell short for
the Ripley Lady Warriors
in their bid to repeat as
Class A state champions
last Thursday in state tour-
nament action at the USA
Softball Hall of Fame Sta—
dium complex in Oklahoma
City. The eighth-seeded
Cyril Lady Pirates claimed
a 2-1 upset win.
Despite the loss, the
Lady Warriors finished the
season with a 34-4 record.
This was also Ripley’s
fourth straight appearance
in the state tournament.
“We knew going in it
was going to be a low-scor—
ing game,” said Ripley head
coach Kaleb Hoffman after—
ward. “We knew with our
pitching and our defense
that they were probably not
going to get a whole lot.
And we knew their pitcher
threw it well because of
a tournament we were at
earlier in the year and she
was just really good today;
some days you just gotta tip
your hat and say great job.”
Ripley only had one
legitimate scoring oppor-
tunity and that was in the
top of the seventh inning
and trailing 2-0. Dakota
Hall and Carolyn Overton
reached on back-to—back
singles. Hall would later
advance to third base'on

drives going. Improved skill
players also had the ability
to break a big play for a
score. But that changed in
the third quarter.
“But we got that mo-jo
on our sidelines with the
pick—six and recovering
the fumble on the kickoff
and getting the ball again
was a big deal,” head coach
Dawayne Hudson said after
the game. “Quincy made
a good break on the ball
because he knew the play
was coming and so he was
kind of baiting it a little bit.
I knew it was a house call
the second it happened.”
Mouton’s first big play
came on the Rockets’ first
offensive possession of
the second half. P-T had
just committed its fourth
defensive penalty to give
MSM a new set of downs
on the P-T 31-yard line. On
a third down and 10 play,
quarterback Joseph Krug
was rushed heavily and
narrowly got his pass off.
However, Mouton stepped
in front of the intended
receiver to intercept the ball
and return it 69 yards for
the much-needed score with
7:44 left in the third quarter.
Dylan Davidson kicked the
second on four extra points
for a l4—3 lead.

On the ensuing kickoff,

south breeze. The ball
wasn’t played by MSM
and Mouton recovered it
in front of the P-T bench.
Five plays later the Demons

last Thursday’s OBU XC Challenge
The high school Lady Demons led the way taking
second place team honors. The middle school girls fin—
ished in third place and the high school Demons finished
in sixth place. The event was hosted by Oklahoma Baptist
University and ran at Gordon Cooper Technology Center.
While schools could have several run in each race, only
seven would factor in team scoring. Medals were given
to the top 15 in each race.
The high school girls had five medalists led by Arn'anna
Coyner and her seventh place finish and a time of 14:35.1 1
