The Nocona High School boys’ basketball team experienced differing offensive outputs in a win and loss at the Windthorst Holiday Classic on Monday.
Nocona opened up tournament play with a convincing 92-53 victory over Alvord, which included an eye-popping 31-point quarter.
Then, in the championship bracket semifinals, Nocona suffered its third loss of the season to Windthorst – this time by a score of 56-48.
Like in the Midwestern State University Classic game on Dec. 20 at Wichita Falls, both Nocona and Windthorst were knotted up with less than two minutes to play.
And, once again, the Trojans got the better of the Indians down the stretch.
Hill was the lone Indian to score in double figures in the loss to Windthorst, putting in 25 points including 6-of-10 from the free-throw line. Jaxon Phipps contributed nine points.
Nocona stands at 7-7 on the season. The Indians played Bellevue in the third-place game on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 p.m.

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

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.
