YOUTH FOOTBALL: Bowie East midgets wallop Quanah
The Bowie East midget football team had little difficulty winning its Top of Texas quarterfinal game on Saturday, defeating Quanah 30-8 at Jackrabbit Stadium.
Midget football is played by boys ages 10-12.
Bowie East improved to 8-1.
The team will play Windthorst at City View on Saturday with kickoff set for 3 p.m.
Hunter Pullen rushed 20 yards for Bowie’s first touchdown – set up by an earlier 20-yard pass play involving Fisher Pullen and Ty Harris.
Harris also scampered on a pair of 30-yard TDs and returned a fumble 45 yards for yet another score.
Devin Melton and Mason Reed both caught two-point conversion passes. Fisher Pullen added a conversion run, too.
Head coach Kevin Pullen said Brae Ogle and Austin Cox were standouts on defense, forcing many Quanah fumbles. Jaxon Perry was also a standout on offense at center and defense as a defensive tackle.

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.
