Sooners president Don Holtby stepped down from his post following the 1980 season after 20 years with the club. As such, this seemed like a good place to break up the team's history.
Some of the information about the team's first few seasons can be found under the IJFL page, dedicated to the local league in which the Sooners first participated.

Head Coach: Bruce Hamilton
Notes: Sooners won the two-game series with Hawkesbury to secure the league championship...A scheduled game against Cornwall at the end of the regular season was cancelled by Cornwall due to a rash of injuries...Some reports show a loss by the Sooners in 1961 but the only one I've found was to a team from Massena, New York, in an exhibition game.
