'It'll be a generational thing': High school coach lauds Baker Mayfield's helmet donations
Briefly

"You can hear 'em all now. They always talk about what Baker does on Sundays. When we've had all the success that we've had this year -- for many different reasons -- we never try to forget what people have done to help with this. And Baker and Emily [Mayfield] are a big part of that."
"After finishing 1-8 last year with just 14 total wins in the past six seasons, the school rehired Owens in February. Owens, who had previously coached the team 2012-17 and had become its winningest coach, had left to take some time away from coaching."
"They had gotten some helmets, but they were already falling apart. The program needed a total of 60-70 to outfit the varsity and junior varsity teams. So Stephanie Starkey, Jacob's mother, approached the Baker & Emily Mayfield Foundation for help."
"Baker and Emily -- they have made lifelong fans. This donation is more than just equipment; it's about giving hope and inspiring young athletes to strive for success."
