Oklahoma 3A Cross Country Final Rankings 2025: Heritage Hall Crashed the Girls’ Party and the Occhiuzzos Owned the Day

The 2025 3A season ended October 25 at North Rock Creek with a girls’ favorite getting jumped, a boys’ favorite holding serve, and one family turning the individual races into a group chat highlight reel. The final polls — girls October 6, boys October 13 — got the broad strokes. The state meet filled in the details, and some of them are delicious.

Girls: The Poll’s #4 Won by 31

The final girls poll read: 1. Cascia Hall, 2. Prague, 3. Washington, 4. Heritage Hall, 5. Oklahoma Christian School. The state meet read: 1. Heritage Hall 68, 2. Cascia Hall 99, 3. Prague 120, 4. OK Chr School 150, 5. Washington 154, 6. Chisholm 188, 7. Rejoice Christian 214, 8. Jones 228, 9. Kingston 234, 10. Kiefer 245, 11. Silo 246, 12. Alva 263, 13. Henryetta 270, 14. Bethel 275, 15. Adair 296.

Heritage Hall, ranked fourth, won by 31 points with a 4-10-17-18-19 spread. The poll had the top three in an order the meet declined to honor. Cascia Hall and Prague ran fine — 99 and 120 are respectable — but Heritage Hall brought a complete team to a knife fight, and four of its five scorers finished before Cascia Hall’s third. That’s not an upset. That’s a scouting failure.

The Occhiuzzo Household Had Quite a Day

The girls’ individual title went to Courtney Occhiuzzo, a Chisholm freshman, in 11:32.9 — thirty seconds clear of Prague’s Jocelyn Ward (12:03.1) and Cascia Hall’s Ella Stoermer (12:03.2). A freshman winning state by half a minute is the kind of thing that gets remembered. What makes it better: her brother Miles Occhiuzzo, a Chisholm junior, finished third in the boys’ race in 16:32.1. Two siblings, two podiums, one very loud car ride home.

And here’s the cruel mathematics of cross country: Courtney won the race and Chisholm’s girls finished sixth with 188 points (scoring order 1-16-44-45-82). One champion, four teammates spread across three minutes. The team trophy went home with Heritage Hall. Individual glory and team glory are different sports that happen to share a starting line.

Boys: Sequoyah Held Serve, Everyone Else Shuffled

The boys’ final poll: 1. Sequoyah Tahlequah, 2. Oklahoma Christian School, 3. Dickson, 4. Chisholm, 5. Wyandotte, 6. Jones. The state meet: 1. Sequoyah (Tahlequah) 53, 2. Chisholm 101, 3. OK Chr School 119, 4. Dickson 134, 5. Jones 162, 6. Wyandotte 170, 7. Cascia Hall 193, 8. Silo 207, 9. Heavener 231, 10. Chandler 253, 11. Lexington 266, 12. Prague 276, 13. Christian Heritage 315, 14. Rejoice Christian 324, 15. Dewey 370.

Credit the poll: it nailed the champion. Sequoyah’s 4-8-9-15-17 was the most complete boys’ performance of the day. But Chisholm (ranked 4th) finished 2nd, OCS (ranked 2nd) finished 3rd, and Dickson (ranked 3rd) finished 4th — the poll had the right four teams and the wrong order, which in October might as well be a different poll.

The individual title went to Landon Eubank, a Dickson junior, in 16:02.2 — confirmed by MileSplit’s elite list at 16:02.13. Lewis Cross (Silo, SR) was second in 16:24.2, Miles Occhiuzzo third in 16:32.1, Ogana Swimmer (Sequoyah, JR) fourth in 16:37.5, Isaac Anderson (OCS, JR) fifth in 16:40.7.

Notice the pattern, because 2025 was the year of it: Silo finished 8th as a team with 207 points while Cross finished 2nd individually — scoring order 2-10-62-63-70. Dickson finished 4th with the individual champion. Cache did the same thing in 4A. Three classes, three teams carried by one hero and sunk by the other four. Depth is a team stat; heroes are a footnote.

The Rewind That Predicts the Present

A year later, the names from this meet are all over the current rankings. Landon Eubank went from 16:02.2 (1st, as a junior) to 15:40 and the top of the 2026 3A poll. Miles Occhiuzzo: 16:32.1 to 16:13 and #4. Isaac Anderson: 16:40.7 (5th in 3A) to 16:11 and #2 in the 4A poll — because OCS reclassified to 4A this fall, same as Heritage Hall, which won this 3A girls’ race and now runs 4A. The classifications shuffle; the fast kids stay fast.

Final ledger for 2025 3A: a girls’ poll that missed its champion by three places and 31 points, a boys’ poll that got the winner right and the order wrong, two Occhiuzzos on two podiums, and three more data points for the theory that one great runner is the most expensive way to finish eighth. The 2026 season is already cashing the checks this meet wrote.
