In this interview, CTB Sports Director Derek Darr sat down with Okeene Head Football Coach Tanner Allen to talk about the road matchup against Pioneer.
The coach began by sharing what to expect against the Pioneer Mustangs:
“We expect a big test anytime you play [against] Pioneer. They’re going to hit you in the mouth and play physical, and I think it’ll be a really good test for us, and I think we need it, so we’re looking forward to it.”
Coach Allen shared what contributes to the team’s success this year:
“A lot of things go into that. [Over] the last few years, we’ve [had] some success, and I think the kids are really excited, and a lot of them are new to the field for us this year, so it hasn’t been their chance to really get out there and play with the first group, so I think they’re excited and hungry. But that being said, I think we’ve got a lot of things to work on and get better at, but they’re having fun and looking forward to each Friday night.”
