First Sooner Choice Awards 'Magical'
April 28, 2016 | Athletics
The first-ever Sooner Choice Awards, OU's student-athlete awards show, was held Wednesday, April 27, at Southwind Hills, a premier event venue just south of Norman.
The awards show, created by student-athletes for student-athletes, was conceived in the desire to unite all generations of Sooners by connecting the athletes of today with those who laid the foundations of our storied tradition. Using the theme of Sooners Magic, its mission is three-fold: Honor the past. Empower the present. Inspire the future.
