Wolverines notch 8th win! Frankly, back in August, it was hard to take Holdenville Head Coach, David Barker, serious when he predicted an eight to nine win season! After all the Wolverines were 1-9 when the 2021 season ended and that lone win wasn’t against a top tier opponent. Coach Barker’s prediction is right on! The Wolverines have won 8 games and they’ll be going for number 9 when Lexington comes to town this Friday for senior night.

Ms. Lowry posted on Facebook: “GOOD STORY ALERT: Okkkkkk, this is just the sweetest. 9-yearold Grayson Poulain wrote this letter to injured OKC Thunder star rookie Chet Holmgren. Anyone know this kid? We would love to interview him (yes, with his parents’ permission).”
