McClish leads NOC Enid past Southwestern Christian JV, 88-60

BETHANY — Playing on back-to-back nights following a 78-69 overtime loss Wednesday at home to Cowley County (Kan.) Community College, Northern Oklahoma College Enid Jets rebounded Thursday night by defeating Southwestern Christian JV 88-60.

Sophomore Xavier McClish had 19 points to lead the Jets, while freshman Connor Brooks added 11 points. The Jets had 12 players score in the victory.

“We competed better tonight,” Jets assistant coach Ryan Mahoney said. “Defensively we had more energy, more effort and we were a little more focused.”

NOC Enid led 39-25 at halftime and utilized a big, 49-point second half to put the game away.

“They came out and tried to press us in the second half and we were able to shoot a lot of free throws and lay-ups,” Mahoney said.

“As a whole, the freshmen are starting to definitely understand the speed of the college game and after the loss to Cowley, it showed them they have to play all 40 minutes.”

The Jets (5-1) will return home Monday to the Mabee Center when Redlands Community College comes in for the Oklahoma Collegiate Athletic Association conference opener for both teams.

“I can’t believe it is already here,” Mahoney said. “It’s good to start conference play at home. It will be good to get the first game under our belt.”

Sooners zero in on Big 12
Oklahoma has made a complete turnaround in the last two days. The squad that looked dominant early in the season has re-emerged at the Big 12 tournament. The Sooners (38-19) rolled to their second straight tournament victory, thumping Texas Tech (25-30), 8-0, Friday, and improving to 2-0 in the event.
After three weeks of struggling, the team OU thought it would be surfaced. The mix of premier pitching and timely hitting was overwhelming to Baylor on Thursday and Texas Tech on Friday.
More importantly, the victories set up the Sooners’ meeting with Kansas State, which topped Baylor 13-9 Friday, at 12:30 p.m. today. The winner advances to Sunday’s championship game.

Claborn pleased with WHS progress
The Deer Creek-Lamont team camp has given Waukomis football coach Jon Claborn an idea of how much his team has progressed over the past year.
A newly hired Claborn a year ago took his team to the DCLA camp with three days of spring football behind them.
“We’re leaps and bounds ahead of where we were last year,’’ Claborn said. “We have looked really good ... we’re a year older, stronger, and hopefully, a year smarter.’’
The DCLA camp has offered the Chiefs good competition with teams such as defending Class B state runner-up Pond Creek-Hunter, Coyle and the host Eagles among the participants.
