CHICKASHA —  

The Chickasha High School football team lost its second game in a row, dropping a district matchup at home against Ardmore on Friday night.

The Fightin’ Chicks lost 34-24, and the loss drops them to 3-4 this season and 1-3 in district play.

Cade Morris went 19-for-34 for 261 yards, four touchdowns and three interceptions, as Chickasha had to rely on the pass in the absence of any rushing success.

Chickasha’s next game will be played at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at Del City High School against the Eagles.
