CPHS Basketball Preview: Sandites host Sapulpa Friday in conference finale

Highway 97 Rivalry will return to Sand Springs Friday at 6:30 p.m. when the Class 6A No. 6 ranked Charles Page High School girls’ basketball team (17-4, 13-0) tips off against No. 18 Sapulpa (13-7, 9-3). The Lady Sandites will look to conclude the season undefeated in Frontier Valley Conference action.

The boys’ game, following the girls, will be a top-five match up as No. 4 Sapulpa (17-3, 10-2) looks to stay in contention for the FVC title by avenging a January loss to No. 5 Sand Springs (15-6, 9-4).

The Lady Sandites have the FVC title on lock with a 13-0 record, while the boys have been eliminated from contention at 9-4. The boys can’t finish any worse than fourth, and could still finish second pending the results of Sapulpa and Union’s final games. Last year the boys placed fourth with a 9-5 record while the girls finished third at 11-3.

The Sand Springs girls hold the No. 6 offense, No. 14 defense, and No. 10 margin of victory in Class 6A, winning by an average score of 60-48. They have won their past four games, most recently a 40-39 barn-burner against No. 18 Bixby.

Sapulpa is thirteenth offensively, sixth defensively, and eighth in margin of victory, winning by an average score of 55-44. The Chieftains have won six in a row, most recently a 62-52 upset of No. 8 Bartlesville.

Sand Springs hasn’t beaten Sapulpa twice in a season since 2011.
