McAlester baseball achieved a goal over its final district games this week. Going into the season the Buffaloes (Class-5A-4 20-15, 8-4) wanted to win 20 games and make the second seed in the district to host a regional tournament. After splitting a pair of games against Coweta (Class-5A-4 18-11, 9-3) this week, they accomplished one of those goals.
Now that all district games have been played, the district standings are set for the 2026 season. Bishop Kelley (Class-5A-4 22-6, 11-0) ran away with the district, taking first place. Coweta finished in second.
McAlester ends the year as the third seed and will travel in the regional tournament but despite that, they feel battle tested. The Buffaloes have played tough competition from around Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado and Arizona this year. They’ve seen championship level matchups from the Best of the West tournament in Arizona, played against top-10 ranked teams in Oklahoma and battled with district rivals.
