HIGH SCHOOL GOLF: Ten advance to regional
Ten high school golfers qualified for the Conference 1A regional tournament set for next week at Legends Golf Course and Resort in Stephenville.
The entire Bellevue boys’ team has advanced by virtue on a second-place team finish during the District 1A-21 tournament at Nocona Hills Country Club on Monday.
The par-72 course plays at 6,529 yards for boys and men, and less for women and girls.
The Saint Jo girls’ squad also moved on because the Lady Panthers finished second as a team.
Forestburg’s Hope Phipps and Prairie Valley’s Robin Fenoglio also qualified as at-large selections.
On the boys’ side, Midway was the winner with a composite score of 481. Bellevue took second with a 488, and Prairie Valley was third (492).
Tioga was the top girls’ team, firing a 465 team score, 10 strokes better than second-place Saint Jo’s 475. Forestburg was third, carding a 483.
Mitchell Eldred, since he wasn’t part of Prairie Valley’s main team, finished short of qualifying for the regional meet despite shooting a 112 and finishing third.
Josiah DeLeon from Tioga was the boys’ medalist, shooting a 77. Kari Hughes, also from Tioga, had the best girls’ score with a 102. Read more, and see complete scores, in the weekend Bowie News.

New Saint Jo Boy’s Basketball Coach Terry McLennan said the school’s family atmosphere is what prompted him to join the Panther family.
“This is an opportunity to be an important program but also part of a great community,” McLennan said. “I’ve been looking to get back to a small town environment like the one I grew up in and played ball and this should do that.”
McLennan played basketball in Hubbard outside of Waco. McLennan comes to town after being the assistant girl’s basketball coach in Grand Prairie.
McLennan contends he’s a defensive style of coach but says his team will focus on intensity.

After some coaching time in East Texas, Bret Botard will be the new girl’s basketball coach at Bowie.
Botard said it’s a chance to work with Bowie Athletic Director Tyler Price once again. Price was Botard’s assistant when he coached at Nocona.
“I wanted to get back into the area,” Botard said. “It’s a good community.”
Botard graduated high school in 1995 from Del Valle High School, outside Austin, and went to Texas Tech. He started his coaching career in Lubbock followed by returning to his alma mater where he was an assistant for his high school coach.
