Drumright and Oilton will face off at 8:00 p.m. on January 23rd without much rest after finishing up games yesterday. Oilton knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past three games -- so hopefully Drumright likes a good challenge. As for Hominy, they will be playing at home against Barnsdall at 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Barnsdall will have to bring their A-game into this one, as they are staring down a pretty big deficit in the MaxPreps Oklahoma Rankings (they are ranked 372nd, while Hominy is ranked 167th).
