Bowie High School girls’ golfer Chloe Polk grew by leaps and bounds during the 2015 season.
Those improvements were put on display at the Conference 3A Region 2 meet on Monday and Tuesday at Peach Tree Golf Course in Bullard.
Polk was in eighth spot after the opening day of competition on April 13 with a 90; and that’s the position remained as she fired a second-day 100 for a composite score of 190.
“Chloe played her best golf of the season at the regional tournament,” Bowie head golf coach Jonathon Horton, “and she did it in difficult conditions both days.”
Horton reported the golf course had standing water from tee to green due to last weekend’s torrential rains. Tuesday’s play featured fog and drizzle.
“For her to shoot her two lowest rounds of the year, in difficult conditions, makes me extremely proud of her,” Horton added.
The entire Nocona girls’ golf team qualified for the regional, and finished among the top 10. The Lady Indians finished with 835 strokes, six behind Glen Rose, but tied with Hughes Springs.
“I thought the girls performed very well at the regional tournament considering the weather conditions,” Nocona head coach Bradley McGann.

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 2^nd 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 8^th 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 2^nd 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.
