SEASON
Continued from Page
team will return a sizeable
group for next season. Next
year's senior class could
be among the largest since
Wertman has been here and
it will be complimented by
a nice group of incoming
sophomores. Next year's
junior class has always
been a small group but
there are players who can
contribute.
"We've got a lot of kids
coming back and with those
kids, a lot of young ones got
some good playing time,"
he said. The good numbers
will quite possibly allow
the coaching staff to fill a
lot of holes in addition to
proving a lot of depth.
Offseason workouts
have already started and
Wertman reported there
are 24 players taking part
in drills. He noted that is
possibly the largest group
he's had. Wertman will be
assisted by defensive coor-
dinator Steve Grotheer with
the workouts plus assessing
things for next season's
run.
And speaking about
this year's crop of seniors,
Wertman was pleased
with the leadership they
displayed throughout the
year.
"I want to thank those
seniors for all their hard
work," he said. "Since I've
been here we've never had
a bad senior class. They've
always taken the responsi-
bility upon themselves and
done a magnificent job."
WRESTLE

had the best tournament,"
Matheson said. "This is his
first year to wrestle since
eighth grade and you could
see his improvement with
each match."
Sophomore Jeff Glenn
at 145 pounds and junior
Clark Crotty at 160 pounds
wrestled in their first tour-
nament of the season and
both finished with 1-2
records. Hunter Phillips, a
sophomore at 106 pounds,
went 0-2 in the event.

There was a list of other
thank yous that Wertman
wanted to pass along.
They include filmers
Mike and Benita Bale and
statisticians Austin Nieten-
hoefer, Danny Darrow, and
Winfrey Kinzie. Wertman
added the Touchdown Club
has been instrumental in
providing a lot of assistance
to the program from serving
meals to the team to pur-
chasing computer equip-
ment and software to help
with scouting and other
preparations. To go along
with that, Wertman offered
thanks to the school district
for getting wireless Interact
• access to the fieldhouse.
Wertman also thanks
Cimarron Valley Co-op as
well as P&K Equipment for
all their help in addition to
OrthoOklahoma for provid-
ing medical personnel at the
games. First Baptist Church
also provided its fellowship
hall for team meals before
games as well.
And last and certainly
not least, the P-T skip-
per was appreciative of
the support from the fans
who attended the games
both home and away and
especially the large group
at the season-ending game
at Jones.
"I want to thank them
fans for sticking with us
through thick and thin," he
said. "We had a great crowd
and they were very vocal
and our kids and coaching
staff really appreciated it."

closing bucket for a 43-34
score.
FHS used a three-pointer
from Jalissa Gum to close to
within six points at 43-37 in
the opening minute of the
fourth quarter. That would
be Frontier's only points as
Ripley used a ball control
offense while scoring the

the Cowboys essentially put
the game away after leading
7-0 after the first quarter.
The Red Raiders managed
to tie the score on the first
play of the second quarter
before the OSU scoring
onslaught.
Quarterback Clint Chelf
threw the three scoring
tosses to Anderson for
scores of 60, 33, and 66
yards. Quarterback J.W.
Walsh made spotted
appearances during the first
half and helped account for
two more scores. He had a
two-yard run in the second
quarter that helped put
the Cowboys up 35-14 at
halftime. Walsh also threw
a two-yard TD to fullback
Kye Staley on the Cow-
boys' opening drive of the
game for the early lead.

points in the third quarter
on touchdown runs by
Jeremy Smith and Joseph

Zack Craig blocked his The Cowboys basket-
second Tech punt of the day ball team took a big leap in
but this time he returned it
30 yards for the score.
The Red Raiders added a
meaningless score late in
the game.
It was easy to see that
all facets of the OSU game
are playing with much more
confidence, especially in
recent weeks. That will
also come in handy with
Saturday's Bedlam battle
earning some early-season
respect following their
appearance in last week-
end's Puerto Rico Tip-Off
event with a 76-56 champi-
onship win over previously
No. 6 North Carolina State
Sunday evening.
Both teams mirrored
their scoring outputs with
OSU scoring 38 points in
each half and the Wolfpack
with Oklahoma next on 28. Le'Bryan Nash led the
the schedule. The game
will kickoff at 2:30 p.m.
and will be broadcast on
ESPN. And things won't be
much easier to close out the
regular season as the Pokes
will play at Baylor next
week. Of course the Bears
of fresh off their upset win
over Kansas State.
Both games are win-
nable if the Cowboys
continue playing like they
have the past two weeks.
That will only improve
the bowl invitation plus

Marcus Smart followed
with 20 as OSU trailed in
the first minute of the game
but never gave it up again.
Phil Forte chipped in
17 points that included
4-of-8 from beyond the
three-point arch. Kamari
Murphy pulled down 10
rebounds as the Cowboys
won that battle 45-34.
OSU opened the tourna-
ment with a 69-65 overtime
win against Akron then

ers with 24 points while
