Congrats to all inductees

Hope everyone is well. What a great year for Basketball in Oklahoma! Congratulations to all the State Champion Coaches and players! I also applaud those whose teams exceeded expectations and overachieved. Some of the great coaching jobs are often overlooked. I continue to be amazed at how many great coaches we have here in Oklahoma.

If you have a desire to learn more about the game I believe there is no better resources than your fellow coaches here in Oklahoma. If you find something out there that you like call up the coach and talk to him. I bet he will help you out-unless he is trying to beat you!!

Please remember the OBCA All-Star weekend June 4th and 5th at Oklahoma Baptist. . I invite you to come early Friday and watch practices and visit. Come out and attend the Players banquet and Hall of Fame induction on Friday night. Come and support our players and listen to some entertaining speeches from our Hall of Fame inductees. It will be worth the trip! The games will be played Saturday afternoon with the Faith 7 later that night. It’s a great weekend. Please be sure to stop and thank OBU coach Doug Tolin and his son Kyle for their work in hosting the games. You might also congratulate them on their NAIA National Championship. I look forward to seeing you at the games.
