Comets Slow tart, Explode Into State Finals 1984 was an outstanding year for the Comets. After a mediocre start, the Comets rode a five game winning streak into the State Finals. The Comets qualified for the playoffs with season ending victories over Bixby and Owasso. The two victories gave the Comets their second straight District title. The Comets opened the playoffs with a 19-14 victory over Pryor, avenging an earlier loss to the Tigers. The quarterfinal victory over Mustang vaulted the Comets into the semi-finals for only the second time in school history. Kelley's miraculous comeback against Miami, a 28-21 overtime victory, placed the Comets in the finals against undefeated Duncan. The Comets played Dun- can down to the wire, before a last second field goal spelled the Comets defeat. At right, Mike Spencer puts on his game face.
