The Coalgate Wildcats pulled off a near “Cinderella” story 70, yes 70, years ago this month. The purple and white cagers finished 3rd in the Little Dixie Conference and an 18-6 regular season record. They had entertained the Coalgate fans to a nice season, but little was anyone prepared for what happened next in Oklahoma high school basketball.

A life of no regret

Wednesday, April 2, 2025 - 6:11am

I remember one nice day in Oklahoma 75 years ago when I volunteering to drive my grandfather, Will W. Armstrong, down to Wister for a visit with his daughter. I was the only one handy that day and besides, being a teenager with a new driver’s license, I looked forward to the trip. I asked my grandpa a lot of questions that day. We were pretty close buddies anyway and many items he mentioned that day I still remember. Born in 1872 he knew a lot about early Oklahoma history. In fact, he lived a lot of it. Driving through Gowan on US270 and down Gowan Mountain into the vast Gowen Prairie, I asked him if he remembered how this part of the state looked in his “day.”
