Matt Baker of the Tulsa World is back as always on Monday to fill us in on what happened on the east side of the state:
Three quick things we learned in Tulsa from the first week of district play:
* Wagoner is for real. We’ve got the Bulldogs ranked first in Class 4A, and I saw why Friday night. Wagoner shut out a 3-0 Vinita team and scored on its first five possessions. Vinita had only 114 total yards – and would have had even fewer, had Wagoner penalties not kept drives alive.
Quarterback Prince McJunkins is a legitimate D-I prospect, and safety/receiver Jimmy Carter is one of the best playmakers I’ve seen this year. Add in a solid linebacker corps (led by Jeremy Applegate and Nick Cody), and Wagoner is the team to beat in 4A.
* Muskogee quarterback Victor Williams might be the best player you haven’t heard of. The junior is a three-year starter and is having a monster 2010 season. He accounted for four touchdowns in a 41-40 win over Southmoore. He was 13-of-20 passing for 301 yards and rushed for 172 more yards.
