The Saint Jo Lady Panthers traveled to western Montague County Tuesday to take on the Gold-Burg Lady Bears.
The Lady Panthers raised their season record to 9-14 with a 3-1 district mark after a straight set victory by the scores of 25-11, 25-8, 25-13 in this District 2A-10 contest. Gold-Burg drops to 0-17, 0-3 in district.
“I thought we could have done better,” said Gold-Burg coach Lyndsey Shaw. “We started out strong in the first and third sets.”
The coach said she was impressed with how her in-county adversary “plays well together.”
“We played a good game,” Saint Jo head coach Kristi Tallon said.
Tallon said Saint Jo has been hit by the injury bug, and that forced the Panthers to bring up some junior varsity players. Read more in the weekend edition of The Bowie News.

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 gives it a go, falls to Perrin 35-32

Published

on

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.
