For Nocona High School’s Miriam Diaz, the University Interscholastic League Conference 3A girls meet marked the end of the line.

For Bowie’s Kamryn Cantwell, the journey is just beginning.

Cantwell, a freshman, clocked in with a time of 12 minutes, 38.74 seconds over the two-mile course at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. It was good enough for 19th.

Diaz was roughly six seconds behind, recording a time of 12:44.78, and that placed her in 28th.

Those two were the only representatives from Montague County and The Bowie News coverage area.

Holliday’s dazzling Cryslan Tucker won the meet in a blazing time of 11:55.84. Like Cantwell, Tucker is just a freshman.

Lady Rabbit SB beats Bridgeport

Published

on

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.
