Timmerman tabbed to lead Jenks baseball
| Ben Johnson
Jenks has hired Justin Timmerman as its new baseball coach, according to a release from the school on Friday.
"I am extremely excited to be the next head baseball coach at Jenks High School," Timmerman said in statement. "This has been a dream come true for me and my family. Jenks baseball has a rich tradition of building upon that legacy."
Timmerman takes over after coaching Sperry the past sixseasons. During the 2019 season, he eclipsed the career 300-win mark.
Sperry wrapped up a 15-14 season in 2019, and fell just short of the state tournament. Timmerman posted a 117-70 record while leading the Pirates.
Prior to his stint in Sperry, Timmerman spent time as the coach at Liberty High School in Mounds before going to Chouteau. From there, he went to Ponca City before serving as an assistant coach at Oral Roberts for two seasons. He's also spent time as a junior college head coach at Globe Institute of Technology in New York City before serving as the head coach at Boca Raton Community High School in Florida.
At Jenks, Timmerman will take over for Jeff Owens, who guided the Trojans to a 21-15 season and a spot in the 6A state tournament.

SKORDLE SAMPLER - Week 10 (2024): Sunrise Cafe in Kingfisher
| Michael Swisher
In Kingfisher, Oklahoma, there is a great little food place called Sunrise Cafe.
I have had breakfast here a few times over the years, but my most recent trip had me giving the incredible looking "Gravy Train" a try after scanning over the menu.
When it comes to breakfast dining out, I normally tend to migrate towards some combination that includes biscuits and this morning would be no different with the Gravy Train selection I was making.

SKORDLE SAMPLER - Week 9 (2024): Revisiting Our Top Candy Picks, Good Soup & Happy Birthday Adam
| Michael Swisher
Since it is Halloween today, I thought it would be fun and timely to run back some previous SKORDLE Halloween Candy Blogs from 2021 and 2022.
I discuss many important topics related to candy preference, secretly stealing lots of candy from my children and my love for the old days of homemade Halloween treats.
If you are fortunate enough to come across a Popcorn Ball, Brownie, Candy Apple, or Rice Krispies Treats, rather than a full-sized candy bar (what's really special about that?), you are truly one of the lucky ones tonight!
I have also included - in the 2021 blog - an incredible Minestrone Soup recipe courtesy of Mr. SKORDLE himself Adam Diesselhorst.
Speaking of Adam, today is his birthday, so tell him Happy Birthday!

SKORDLE SAMPLER - Week 8 (2024): Flamingo Lounge
| Michael Swisher
If you haven’t had a burger at the Flamingo Lounge in Enid, you really need to because they are absolutely delicious!
The Flamingo is located right at the main intersection of town (U.S. 81 and U.S. 412 or Van Buren and Garriott for the locals).
It’s a classic dive joint that has been a favorite for many for a really long time.
Simple is why they are great.
The burgers are incredible and what I love the most is the melty cheese and warm greasy bun.
I would highly recommend the Double Meat, Double Cheeseburger.
