Bowie High School head football coach Dylan Stark paid a special visit to the Lions Club in the meeting room at Ozona National Bank on Thursday afternoon.
Stark discussed coming events, including today’s scrimmage against Bridgeport. The first play will run at 9 a.m.
Both the Jackrabbits first- and second-team varsity units will run through a series of plays in both eight- and 10-minute increments. The junior varsity and freshman units will scrimmage starting at 10:45 p.m.
“We’re going to treat it like it’s a practice,” Stark said.
The most important part of the scrimmage for Stark is to see the Jackrabbits get better.
Stark said Bridgeport will be “ready to go,” especially after the Bulls just endured a winless season.
All Montague County football coaches agreed that the scrimmages will be used as an evaluation period and see if the players are in the proper positions to make plays.
“It’s going to be good to get out there and see how we will do against someone else,” Saint Jo head coach Chad Tallon said. “We’ll be able to get some good looks, and good reps (repetitions).”
Saint Jo’s scrimmage took place on Friday night against Westlake Academy, a private school in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
Teams will participate in 40 plays, with both first- and second-teams getting looks.
Gold-Burg will play host to Wichita Notre Dame at 9 a.m. Read more in the weekend edition of The Bowie News.
