HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL: Feverish Brady leads Rabbits
The Bowie High School girls’ basketball team wrapped up Burleson Tournament action on Saturday with a slim 58-57 victory over Keller Fossil Ridge.
The Lady Rabbits went 4-1 overall at the tournament, but earned fifth place in this oddly-formatted event.
Still, Bowie head girls’ basketball coach Colby Davis-Pastusek said she was pleased with her team’s effort – especially coming out on top by one point in a pair of games.
“In both situations, we were up one point, and we had to get a defensive stop,” Davis-Pastusek said.
Courtney Brady was named to the all-tournament team and she tallied 25 points in the victory over Fossil Ridge.
Brady played great despite having a fever, Davis-Pastusek reported.
“She stepped up and had a big weekend for us,” Davis-Pastusek said. “She carried the bulk of our offense, and shot the ball well. She did well playing through illness.”
The Lady Rabbits prevailed over Keller Fossil Ridge by outscoring them 20-14 in the final quarter.
Bowie stands at 9-4, and the team is off until Friday’s home game against Decatur. Read more, and see the complete box score, in the mid-week Bowie News.

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.
