The whirlwind month of allstar games continued last weekend for Cashion High School classmates, teammates and cousins Vance Raney, left, and Jonah Jenkins. The duo most recently competed last Saturday in the Oklahoma Native All-State Association’s boys basketball games. The Native All-State games were held at the Monolithic Dome in Okmulgee. The Cashion duo were a part of the White team, which lost a narrow 101-97 decision to the Blue. A week earlier, Raney and Jenkins were joined by Cashion teammate Austin Frazier in the Oklahoma Basketball Coaches Association All-Star games held at Hamilton Fieldhouse on the campus of the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond. The 2A all-stars defeated the 3A all-stars 100-88. Just a couple of days prior to that, the group took part in the annual Classic Bowl all-star games in Woodward (see June 12 edition). Raney and Jenkins helped lead Cashion to three state tournaments during their careers, including a 2A state runner-up finish in 2022. [Photo provided]
