It's a good year to be a Sooner!



The athletic departments at the University of Oklahoma are on fire. With the many wins and national attention, OU is growing at a stellar rate. From the success of sports to the academic wonders university President David Boren has created, OU is on the rise.
The athletic programs are excelling, creating more insensitive for students to attend OU. As student numbers go up, more professors come, better programs are created, and list continues on.
I part of the recent success, the football team just went to the 3rd national championship in 5 years.
The men's and women's basketball teams are each ranked 2nd in the nation. The men's gymnastic team has won 5 out of the last 8 championships.
ESPN recently released that OU is the most prestigious program EVER! Responding, Boren said that "In many ways, over the years, the football team and the attitude toward athletic excellence . . . have allowed us to shine a light on Oklahoma and for people to see that academic excellence . . . Our excellence in athletics has given us a chance to give others a window into the university."
OU athletics hope to continue their reign of success for years to come. For schedules and meets, go to www.soonersports.com
