💪🏆 STATE CHAMPION! 🏆💪 The Commerce Tigers have a STATE CHAMPION in Powerlifting! Izayah Williams has claimed the State Championship in the 123 lb class, and what an incredible accomplishment it is. This title represents months and years of early mornings, late workouts, and relentless effort in the weight room. Powerlifting is not easy. It takes discipline, toughness, and the willingness to push yourself past limits — and Izayah has done exactly that. He has worked his tail off for this achievement, and today that hard work has paid off with a STATE TITLE. We are incredibly proud of the dedication he has shown and the way he represents Commerce High School and the Tiger community. Congratulations Izayah Williams — 123 lb POWERLIFTING STATE CHAMPION! 🐅 #TigerPride #StateChampion #CommerceTigers #WeBleedTigerBlue #PowerliftingChampion
Long day of soccer for the Tigers and although the outcomes were not what we wanted, I couldn't be more proud of the young men who represented CHS today. They battled Oologah to a 0-0 draw before falling in PKs.
In the second game we started shorthanded with 10 players and finished with 8. Despite huge heart demonstrated by all, the Tigers fell 0-5 against Enid JV.
The highlight of the day, was having both the Lady Tigers, and Tigers complimented by other schools for their class, sportsmanship, and heart. What a great day to be a Tiger.⚽️🐅
The Lady Tigers were up early this morning as they headed to the Bristow Soccer Tournament. ⚽️
They opened the day with a hard-fought win over Cushing, 2-0. Rosalinda Morales scored the first goal, and Avery Durham added the second on a PK to secure the Lady Tigers’ first win of the season!
In the second match, the Lady Tigers battled hard against Mount St. Mary but came up just short, 1-3.
Great effort today, ladies, way to represent Commerce! ⚽️🐅
High School Baseball Final
Commerce Tigers – 6
Westville Yellowjackets – 5
The Tigers hold on for the win and improve to 4–0 on the season! 💙⚾
