In their second convincing win of the young season, the Cordell Blue Devils skunked the Okeene Whippets 35 to 0 in an alumni weekend game on the Okeene field.

“I felt like our defense played very well and our offense was good, too,” said Cordell Head Coach Dustin Beasley. “I was very proud of our team!”

Cordell’s first score came after forcing the Whippets to punt. The Blue Devils took advantage of a short field, including a 20+ yard gain by Ellis Grissom on an option play.
