Rae Grellner has been a big hit at the Big House the last two years, not just with her basketball skills.
The Okarche basketball player has twice played the national anthem on the violin before an Okarche game at the State Fair Arena — a huge hit with the crowd each time.
And now she’ll get to play an even bigger stage. Grellner adn her violin will be center stage for the national anthem at Friday night’s Oklahoma City Thunder game vs. Orlando at 7 p.m. at Chesapeake Arena.
Here’s our story from earlier this month, when Grellner played the anthem right before helping Okarche win a state title.
