“I’ve never seen a group that’s been on a mission like this one,” said Cushing Tiger Head Coach Rusty Morgan, right after his undefeated (13-0) Tigers destroyed the Elk City Elks, 56-14 and secured their spot in the Class 4A football championship for the first time in nine years.

“This is huge,” said Morgan. “They’re going to celebrate right now like you can see but… there’s still one more.”

That on…
