Broken Arrow Stays Undefeated After Downing Tulsa-Area Rival Owasso: Oklahoma High School Football

Two Oklahoma high school football teams vying to win the Class 6A-I title squared off on Friday.

On the final play of the opening half, there was one team that really looked the part of a title contender.

A pick six by Broken Arrow defender Jack Gardner drastically grabbed the momentum for good, and quarterback Shamar Banner threw four touchdown passes as the Tigers defeated Owasso, 43-22, at the Tigers’ Memorial Stadium in a matchup between two teams ranked in the Top 5 in the latest High School On SI Oklahoma Top 25 poll.

The Tigers, who came in ranked No. 3 in the latest rankings, moved to 3-0 while Owasso - which lost to No. 1-ranked Bixby two weeks ago in its season opener - came in at No. 4, but the Rams are now 0-2.

With BA holding a 16-8 lead late in the first half, Owasso drove into Tiger territory. The Rams then threw a pass, which went right into the hands of Gardner, who took it all the way from 63 yards out as BA went into halftime with a 22-8 lead.

Then, the Tigers scored TDs on each of their first three second-half possessions to build a commanding 43-8 advantage. Banner, a move-in from Georgia, finished the night completing 10-of-16 passes for 234 yards and four TDs as Broken Arrow generated 400 yards of total offense.
