Bixby Spartans Claim Top Spot in High School Football Rankings, Outshine National Powerhouses
In a major turnaround for high school football in Oklahoma, the Bixby Spartans have taken the spotlight, proving that the Sooner State can stand toe-to-toe with national heavyweights. Known more for its fierce rivalry with Texas when it comes to producing football talent, Oklahoma hasn’t had a team labeled a national contender—until now!
Bixby’s Rise to Glory
Bixby High School is now basking in the glory of being ranked number one in the nation according to the Massey Ratings. This is no small feat, as they’ve surpassed well-regarded programs like IMG Academy and St. John Bosco from California. What’s truly remarkable is that Bixby holds this top rank with just a tiny edge of more than a tenth of a point!
With an impressive start this season, the Spartans are currently boasting a 5-0 record. They’ve lined up against some of the toughest teams in Oklahoma, including several that are ranked within the state’s top 25. Bixby kicked off their season with a bang, securing a 49-21 victory over the highly regarded No. 3 Owasso team, establishing their dominance right from the get-go.
Dominating Performance
It hasn’t just been a walk in the park for the Spartans. Their games against Charles Page and Choctaw have seen jaw-dropping scores, with Bixby winning those two contests by a combined score of 113-14. In a particularly thrilling match against the Jenks team, they emerged victorious with a whopping score of 66-35, thanks to the standout performance of quarterback Carson Kirby, who threw an incredible six touchdown passes!
Then came their most recent triumph, which was nothing short of extraordinary. The Spartans faced off against Moore and cruised to an impressive 81-6 victory, leading 63-6 at halftime. Just four points shy of their school record of 85 points set last season, this triumph solidified their reputation as a force to be reckoned with in high school football.
Looking Ahead
The Spartans are not just resting on their laurels; they are predicted to be favorites by more than 35 points in each of their upcoming five games, which include three matchups against ranked opponents. If Bixby maintains this momentum and triumphs in these next outings, they will secure the coveted No. 1 seed for the state playoffs. Their sights are set on achieving their eighth consecutive state title, and their ninth in the last ten years, which would add another shiny trophy to their impressive cabinet.
Standouts and Team Spirit
Leading the charge for the Spartans is the talented quarterback, Carson Kirby, whose performance has been nothing short of exemplary this season. Alongside him is Braeden Presley, a remarkable two-way player who comes from a family of champions, with brothers who have made notable strides in football. It is clear that the competitive spirit runs deep within the Presley family!
Guiding this talented roster is head coach Loren Montgomery, who is dedicated to the development of the players and instilling a winning mindset in the team. Under his leadership, Bixby High School continues to etch its name into the annals of Oklahoma high school football history, emphasizing both the importance of individual growth and the thrill of competition.
