CANEY — The Caney Valley High School men’s locker room Monday night didn’t have a single dry eye after the Caney Valley Bullpups earned a 66-54 victory over Neodesha in the class 3A sub-state tournament opener.

Those teary eyes weren’t fueled by a tournament victory but by complete sadness for the team coach, Criss Davis, who lost his mentor, father and friend, Les Davis, the previous day.

Criss Davis was not preparing to coach Monday’s game, instead focusing his time on making funeral preparations and dealing with the grief that had befallen his family in such a sad way. The elder Davis was afflicted with a stroke during his grandson’s wedding ceremony in Copan, Okla., on Saturday afternoon. Les Davis died the next day in a Tulsa hospital.
