Oklahoma High School Football 2011 Preview
Class 3A's Dynamic Duo: Heritage Hall's Barry Sanders, Sterling Shepard push each other to be better
Pull up to the Heritage Hall football practice field near the south end of campus on a weekday afternoon. There, during one-on-one drills, an intense competition is brewing between two of Oklahoma's top college football prospects — Barry J. Sanders and Sterling Shepard.
Ryan Aber: It's been a long time since a duo like Barry Sanders, Sterling Shepard came along
Class 3A's other dynamic duos: Anadarko's Sheldon Wilson, Tyler Melton look to make another run
4A duo: Douglass' Cayman Bundage, Jas'Sen Stoner lead by example
Douglass coach Willis Alexander holds a standard of expectations for his players. If you're curious what those expectations entail, just watch Trojan seniors Cayman Bundage and Jas'Sen Stoner.
4A's other dynamic duos: Kevin Peterson, Jeremy Applegate key to Wagoner's defense
6A duo: Ed. North's Tudman, Benway happy to get on field together
When Jarion Tudman moved to Edmond and saw Edmond North RB Jared Benway, he was reminded of a former NFL star. “I thought, ‘There's a big Mike Alstott-looking dude,'” Tudman said with a laugh.
6A's other top duos: Stillwater's Cory Hassell, Jesse Vecter back for senior seasons
8-man duo: Davenport's Mike, Matt Miller always close by on the field
The dynamic Miller brothers of Davenport are about as familiar with one another as two teammates can be. Mike Miller, the Bulldogs' senior running back, and Matt Miller, the team's junior quarterback, have been on sports teams together since they were little.
5A duo: Guthrie's Landry Chappell, Bryan Dutton bonded over sports
Landry Chappell and Bryan Dutton have been close for almost as long as they can remember. Sports have been the centerpiece of their friendship, first with football, then wrestling and baseball.
5A's other dynamic duos: Carl Albert's Darren Colquitt, Alex Polston are big-time playmakers
2A duo: Hennessey's Ivan Moreno, Levi Hill happy to share the spotlight
Some very talented high school players couldn't handle sharing the spotlight at their position. Hennessey's Ivan Moreno and Levi Hill wouldn't have it any other way, though.
2A's other dynamic duos: Davis' Cole Weber, Zac Maynard team up for 2A favorites
A duo: Wayne's Josh Way, Sam Martin ready for more success
A year ago at this time, the Wayne football players were motivating themselves with talk of winning a playoff game. Josh Way and QB Sam Martin were a big reason for last year's 8-4 record.
A's other dynamic duos: Dylan Seiter, Justin Eck key to Thomas defense
