Johncox On Preps: Perfection still a long way away
We're halfway through the prep football season, and there are three undefeated teams left in the area.

Shutout
Halfway home. That's where Norman North is in its push to a perfect regular season after taking care of a scrappy Moore squad, 33-0, at Harve Collins Stadium Friday night.

Tigers fall short

Lexington has given up an average 93.

Another chance
Mike Bread and his Little Axe softball team didn't want to be in this position, having to win three games today to reach the Class 4A state tournament.
Yet on the other hand, it's the Indians' season-long success, the same thing that made Friday's regional split difficult to accept, that has Bread confident heading into today.
