It’s safe to say Michael Cagle knows soccer talent.
During his junior year playing collegiately at Southern Nazarene University, he and his father, Neil, the head coach at Southwest Christian College, started the Bethany High School soccer program.
So you’ll have to excuse him if he’s frank when referring to the talent of Hannah Burks and Erika Odom, who play on his Canadian Valley Futbol Club 98 Girls Red squad, part of the Oklahoma Premiere League, and made up mostly of players from Yukon, Norman and Mustang.

New Big Elks boys basketball coach, locally-grown Lucian Bliss, returns to region

Life always has a funny way of bringing people full circle, re-connecting individuals with old friends, family, or places in which they once lived.
For Lucian Bliss, taking the Elk City High School boys basketball head coaching job was just that, as his coaching path has now sketched a triangle between the Carnegie, Alva and Elk City areas.
In the coming months, Bliss, whose wife Rachel is expecting a child in the next two weeks, will make sure the lines in that triangle darken, as he plans to make many trips back and forth between Alva and Elk City.
