Enrollment numbers are out for the upcoming school year
and there are some major changes involving basketball powers come
November for Class 5A. Shawnee and Bixby will move up to 6A and will be replaced with Tulsa Memorial and Tulsa East Central. Memorial boys stunned Putnam City, in the '07 State tournament, en route to a state championship. Memorial was 22-4 last season in 6A while the East Central boys finished with a 12-10 record. The Memorial girls were 20-4 while the East Central girls finished with a 13-9 record this past season. Guthrie will continue to be a 5A school. |
Harrah and Stillwell will move from 5A down to 4A while Grove and Tulsa Central jump up to 5A. The Harrah girls are a perennial state tournament bound each season and have been in both 5A and 4A. Harrah boys clinched an '07 state tournament berth.
Football districts will be realigned for the 2010 and 2011 seasons and
will be announced later this month at the coaches clinics being held in Tulsa.
