H.S. BOYS BASKETBALL: Eagles’ rally falls short against ranked Indians

Huckabay made a 3-pointer from the wing with 4 minutes, 28 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.
That gave the Indians a 57-43 lead over Bellevue during Friday’s non-district boys’ basketball game at Bellevue.
But, the Eagles weren’t about to surrender that easily.
Bellevue scored the game’s next 13 points to pull within one, but the Eagles missed several shots during the final minute and state-ranked Huckabay posted a 59-56 victory.
“Defensively, we played really hard,” Bellevue head coach Colby Broussard said. “We were down to five varsity players due to injuries, and the rest of the guys picked up the slack and played hard.”
Broussard said Bellevue’s leading scorer Broc Terry was face-guarded throughout the game, and that flustered the standout Eagle.
In the fourth quarter, Terry scored eight of his team-best 20 points.
“He came into his own for us then,” Broussard added.
It was part of a stellar performance for Terry, who also grabbed 10 rebounds, dished off four assists and swiped five steals to lead Bellevue.
Jakob Watkins started Bellevue’s rally down 14 with a dribble drive to the hoop. Read more, and see the complete box score in the mid-week 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.
