The Osage Redbirds recently won first place in the Cherokee Challenge Bowl in the kindergarten through second grade division. Winning team members are Taylor Brooner, Cody Moore, Collin Edwards, Isabella Campus, and Julia Hough. Second place went to the Keys Bears. The Keys Bears team members are Ray Mullins, Jasilyn Stopp, Lisan Tiger, Taylor Thompson, and Royianne Adams. Maryetta won third place. Maryetta's team members are Shania Wolf, Mariah Hooper, Brandon Keen, Brittney Hamilton, and Payton Hothouse. Eight teams competed in this age division.
