Without even playing, Bowie drops in TABC poll

The Bowie High School girls’ basketball team didn’t open the season until last night against Burkburnett.
So, to find the Lady Rabbits dropping 10 spots from 11th to 21st might be a little surprising.
All the teams ranked ahead of Bowie have played at least one game.
Grandview has played five games already and Teague and Live Oak Cliff four each.
Among area teams, Brock is second, Krum 12th and Peaster 16th.
Bowie will play Krum next Monday at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. Tip-off is set for 2 p.m.
Five teams ahead of the Lady Rabbits have already incurred their first loss. Bowie is not ranked in the Texas Girls Coaches Association poll.
In Conference 2A girls, Muenster is 12th and Alvord 22nd to round out area teams receiving state recognition.
In Conference 3A boys, Peaster is 7th and Whitesboro is 14th.
Neither Montague County boys teams nor Bellevue are ranked.
