“They’re dang good. What do you expect me to say? They’re 11-0!!”That’s how Buc Head Coach Mike Kirtley answered when asked bout this week’s playoff gameThat’s how Buc Head Coach Mike Kirtley answered when asked bout this week’s playoff game vs. Fairview.His Tonkawa Bucs go to Fairview at 7 p.m. Friday for the second round of the Class A state championship playoffs.“They’re very athletic. And being 11-0 means no one has been able to figure them out this season,” Kirtley said.“They’re very fast and aggressive and are very multiple in what they do with a five front defensively and a spread offense.”So what does Tonkawa need to do to win?“We’ll just have to make plays and not give them any help,” Kirtley said, “keeping turnovers and penalties to a minimum.”The Buc team is coming off one of their best performances of the season vs. Wayne in a first round 27-0 win.“Our kids played very good, one of the two best games the entire season,” Kirtley said.“They got off their blocks well and as a result we were able to get people to the ball defensively. Our receivers and backs made some big plays.“I was happy for our kids. I hope they continue to do that throughout the post-season,” he ended.Their seasons so far...Fairview Yellowjackets11 wins, 0 lossesHobart, 48-15Chisholm, 43-0Alva, 26-19Sayre, 41-7Thomas, 53-13Burns Flat-Dill City, 34-8Texhoma, 47-13Mooreland, 42-20Merritt, 44-20Hooker, 30-28PlayoffsCordell, 48-6Tonkawa Buccaneers 8 wins, 2 losses8 wins, 2 lossesNewkirk, 40-3Perry, 12-13Blackwell, 32-6Morrison, 27-16Crescent, 25-6Watonga, 26-18OCA, 47-12Hinton, 33-14Cashion, 8-28PlayoffsWayne, 27-0District A-3 Standings...This Week’s GamesHooker at CashionTonkawa at Fairview Last Week’s ResultsLast Week’s Results Cashion 48 Dibble 14Cashion 48 Dibble 14Tonkawa 27 Wayne 0Elmore City 42 OCA 20Ringling 53 Hinton 13Big 12 gamesIowa State at OUOSU at Texas TechTexas at West VirginiaKansas at TCUBaylor at K-StateArea prep contests Class A playoffsTonkawa at FairviewStroud at MorrisonMinco at RinglingPawnee at MoundsColcord at PawhuskaElmore City at Burns FlatWoodland at GoreHooker at Cashion ...
