2019 was a year that saw widespread success for area hoops. The top dog and the team selected for our final year in review piece is the Oklahoma Union Cougars. OKU stormed to the area finals after a tremendous season.

Over the course of the year OKU tallied 24 victories, including 18 straight before dropping back-to-back games to Checotah and Rejoice Christian in the Area finals with a state tournament bid on the line. The Cougars showed their prowess across the area by winning the annual Caney Valley Tournament for the second consecutive year. OKU head coach Lee Ott talks about what made the team so successful.

The Cougars only lost two players off last year’s squad. OKU is currently undefeated and has the Ty Hewitt Tournament championship under its belt.
