100 years in the making
Area news agencies have reported about an historic shake-up in Whitesboro, some say the ground literally shook in the area from two epic Oklahoma earthquakes, but Whitesboro junior Kacie Jones summed it up best after a special celebration on Saturday, Nov. 5, “It wasn’t an earthquake it was a Bearcat Rumble!”
Whitesboro overcame all odds and broke a 100 year streak without a playoff appearance after beating rival Pilot Point 60-7, which was the first victory since 1976, to finish the regular season 7-3.
Whitesboro has achieved a goal never attained before, but it isn’t enough. Gill said, “We have to show not only that we belong here, but that we can go even further.” Gill continued, “We belong boys, we belong. Let’s prove it again next week.”
