Union Redskins - Two Time Defending Oklahoma 6A Football Champions
Redskins Repeat!
Tulsa World - Friday night’s Class 6A state championship game produced another big surprise in the Union-Jenks rivalry — the largest blowout in the seven title showdowns between the teams.
For the second straight year, Union defeated Jenks in the 6A final with Thomas Roberson scoring the touchdown that gave the Redskins a lead they never relinquished. This time, however, Roberson’s big play didn’t occur in the second half — it happened instead on the opening kickoff.
Roberson took a cross-field lateral from Jacob Rice and raced 76 yards to the end zone. Two minutes later, Union quarterback Chase Boyce scored on a 7-yard run and the second-ranked Redskins were on their way to a 52-19 victory over the stunned Trojans before 10,776 fans at the University of Tulsa’s Chapman Stadium.

Sports Illustrated has released their list of the nations top high school athletic programs and Union is on the list at number 10. No other Oklahoma schools made the list.

Hall of Fame Broadcaster to Call Redskin Games in 2009
The Sports Animal announces former voice of Oklahoma University football and basketball, John Brooks, will be the new “voice” of Union High football for the upcoming season on The Sports Animal.
For 16 years, from 1984 to 1990, John Brooks was the voice of OU football and is well known for his “Jiminy Christmas” call. Brooks also served several years as the play-by-play for OU basketball. After his stint at OU, he also served as play-by-play for Tulsa University, Northeastern State University and the Oklahoma City Blazers of the CHL. Brooks was recently inducted in to the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame. Kevin Ward, program director of The Sports Animal, who also worked with Brooks on the Sooner Basketball Network in 1990, will fill the role as color analyst for the Union broadcasts and says, “our mission here at The Animal, is to bring our listeners the very best and with John Brooks, we’ll give Union football fans the best!” Brooks will also appear on The Sports Animal each Tuesday and Thursday during the football season.
