A battle between the two oldest schools in Lawton, Oklahoma, these bitter rivals hold nothing back when they meet on the field. Fans pack the stadium every year for a game that is so crazy that the teams stay on their own side of the field and do no not cross during the game. Last season, we saw the Eisenhower Eagles take down the Lawton Wolverines for the first time since 2008, with a commanding 59-23 win. This year’s edition of the rivalry should be intense as Lawton hopes to bounce back, and Eisenhower looks to build a winning streak.
