Your friends and family now have more options and convenience for buying Jagwear shirts, jackets, and fan gear. Every homegame is a great opportunity to get the latest designs and apparel.
Monday's Senior night is the last scheduled home varsity game. If you miss the special limited edition shirts and jackets, your next best opportunity would likely have been several months away. But that has now changed.
Bibliomania Homeschool Supply has now agreed to open a Jagwear outlet at the 21st st. & 129th ave retail location. Proceeds still support participating NOAH athletic programs. Owner, Sue Stenberg, has long been a NOAH mom and avid supporter. She and all the staff at Bibliomia are excited about the new additions and hope to help spread Jaguar spirit.

Basketball Tournaments Delayed to Friday

Driving is proving to be a dangerous activity,

Due to Winter weather, both the Boys & Girls basketball tournaments slated for Thursday evening have been postponed until Friday.

According to the Tulsa World report, Public schools have long held policies not to have sporting events on days that the school has weather-related closings.

Emily Stone from the Union Schools A.D.'s office already reported a revised schedule which moves the NOAH girls games to Friday, Saturday, & Monday.

IF Union or Jenks schools are closed on Friday as well, then a cancellation of the entire tournament will be announced. We'll hope that doesn't happen and we can complete this great event. Webster may likely have the same contingency plan.

Barry Lewis at the Tulsa World is keeping up with the situation. Read the Tulsa World report here.

EXTRA! A Good Friend Of NOAH Lands Big Job

EXTRA! A Good Friend Of NOAH Lands Big Job

Breaking:
    Former NOAH Football Camp Instructor, Bill Blankenship, is set to be hired as University of Tulsa's next Head Football Coach.

    Bill has done a lot for NOAH, particularly for the football program that his brother Joe Blankenship built "from the ground". When NOAH began football, Bill was head coach at nearby Union High School. His Redskins were reigning 6A state champs.

    NOAH was immediately granted the support of Union High School's Athletic Trainers and medical facilities. A privilege that continues to this day.

    Bill and his staff conducted football camps for NOAH when no other prep program would even acknowledge the legitimacy of homeschool varsity football.

    Bill Blankenship recommended his son Josh to be NOAH's first varsity offensive coordinator(2006). Josh later moved on to eventually become a 6A head coach for Muskogee High.
    When Bill joined the coaching staff at the University of Tulsa, He secured NOAH's participation in T.U's Todd Graham Football Camp, a premier training program for top varsity teams in Oklahoma. NOAH athletes were training with D1 coaches and developing into a top Oklahoma prep powerhouse.

Bill & Angie Blankenship

    Bill embodies the coaching philosophy that his family stands for; first in his father, who led his high school alma mater(Spiro) to state contention and is in the Oklahoma Coaches Hall of Fame.
    Bill and his brothers continue to honor that Christian ethic on and off the field.
    NOAH would like to be among the first and loudest to applaud T.U.'s selection to lead an already-booming athletic program.
    We expect this move to be beneficial to NOAH in the community and especially for athletes like former NOAH quarterback, Malachi Blankenship, who is currently on the T.U. football roster.
