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.

Lake Worth 13 0 14 8 0 – 35
Bowie 7 7 7 14 6 – 41
Records: Lake Worth 0-2, Bowie 1-1
Muenster wallops Nocona
At Muenster, Nocona’s Kyle Santell threw a pair of touchdown passes and the Indians stayed competitive with the Hornets through one quarter.
But, the Conference 2A Division II eighth-ranked Muenster had way too many answers for Nocona in this battle of traditional rivals, winning 61-19.
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.

A positive culture can be tough to install but will reap dividends if done correctly.
Trinadee Imotichey is trying to do just that with her Forestburg Lady Longhorns.
Imotichey, an assistant coach on the 2025 Forestburg volleyball team, was moved into the head coaching position. Last year’s coach, Cori Hayes, took over as football head coach.
Imotichey, in her 2nd year in Forestburg, said she learned a lot from Hayes and is ready to take over.

Bowie’s summer softball league team overcame a 6-1 deficit with a six-run third inning for a 7-6 win over Bridgeport in its season opener July 6.
The league consists of teams from Bowie, Nocona, Lindsay, Bridgeport, and Alvord and will last three weeks. Bowie will host games each week.
Bowie pitcher Hazel Trahern gave up two singles and a groundout to put the Sissies on the board in the first. It would be the only hits she gave up in the game. Two groundouts and a strikeout got the Lady Rabbits out of the jam.
Bowie got the run back in the bottom of the first with Andee Jo Miller opening the frame with a walk and a stolen base. She then scored on Kynlee Baker’s groundout to tie the game at one.

Rest. Run. Repeat.
Sage Keck, an 8th grader at Montague, lives by this mantra. No ifs, ands and buts about it.
She’s been running since fourth grade PE classes where she would run a mile every week. After discovering she could outrun the other students, she began to enjoy it and continued doing it.
Her success continued, as she finished 2nd overall against more than 200 runners at the Old Saint Jo 5K July 4. In last weekend’s Texas Junior Olympics, she reached the pinnacle of her career so far by qualifying for the United States of America Track and Field (USATF) National Junior Olympics in Norwalk, Calif. in three events.
