FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: Stallcup gives Bowie victory
The Bowie High School football team earned its first victory of the season as Kevin Stallcup scored on a 1-yard run in overtime to give the Jackrabbits a 41-35 victory at Jackrabbit Stadium.
Bowie was up 35-27 in the fourth quarter when the Bullfrogs mounted a late rally. Lake Worth scored first on a safety, and then Tray White completed a 16-yard TD pass to Tony Birch.
The Bullfrogs misfired on the extra-point conversion, and that sent the game into overtime.
Bowie’s Lawson Mickler connected with Chase Hall on a pair of touchdowns and one more TD pass to Jay Ward. Carter Shackelford added a 10-yard TD run for the winning Jackrabbits.
Bowie travels to Henrietta next Friday, with a 7:30 p.m. kickoff.

Records: Lake Worth 0-2, Bowie 1-1
Muenster wallops Nocona

Nocona will have its first home game of the season next Friday against Ponder.
The Indians and Hornets were tied at 13-all heading into the second quarter when the Hornets poured it on with 27 points. Muenster added 21 more points in the third quarter.
Dalton Bartel scored three of Muenster’s first four touchdowns.

Bowie, playing on a short rest, held with host Jacksboro for most of the volleyball match Oct. 1, but the Tigerettes pulled away late and defeated the Lady Rabbits 3-1 (26-24, 12-25, 25-14, 22-25).
The match was scheduled for Oct. 2 but was moved. Both teams are now 2-2 in District 6-3A.
Jacksboro got out to a quick lead in game one before Olivia Stewart’s kill and a three-point Olivia Richey serving run put the visitors up 8-7. Junior Abby Reneau broke things open with a six-point string to give Bowie a 15-8 cushion and force Jacksboro into a timeout.
The Tigerettes came back and took an 18-16 lead. KP Rutherford’s kill broke the serve and allowed Molly Enlow to tie the game at 18.

Gold-Burg Football Coach Austin Norman called his Bears’ 35-32 loss to host Perrin a “barn burner”.
It most definitely was as Gold-Burg, now 1-5 for the year gave the 5-1 Pirates everything they wanted for four quarters. Gold-Burg scored on the last play of the first half on a Peyton Epperson run with the two point conversion cutting the deficit to 20-16.
The Bears were their own worst enemy to open the third quarter with face mask and offside penalties moving the Pirates downfield setting up a first-and-goal at the Bear three. Defense by Epperson, Keelyn Case and Barrett Allen and a pair of Perrin penalties helped stop the drive and force a turnover on downs.
Gold-Burg was slapped with an intentional grounding penalty on the first play, giving Perrin a safety and extending the Pirate lead to 22-16. Defense by Epperson and JoJuan Grace after a first down run closed out the third quarter.
