The Bowie and Nocona High School track and field teams began their quest toward a trip to the University of Texas in Austin with the District 3A-9 meet on Monday.
For the Bowie girls, Addy Cook was a bright spot, and Brittney Pound returned to help the Lady Rabbits in relays and sprints, in the meet at Jacksboro High School.
“Addy had an outstanding day for the first day of district competition,” Bowie head girls’ track and field coach Colby Davis-Pastusek said. “She set personal records in both the high jump and triple jump, and earned 18 points toward the team totals. I am looking forward to seeing what she can accomplish with two more weeks of work.”
The top-four finishers from these events will move onto the area meet, also scheduled for Jacksboro later this month.
Nocona’s Miriam Diaz qualified in the 3,200-meter run, clocking in at 13 minutes, 0.75 seconds. Diaz was the lone area qualifier.
Cook garnered the high jump with a leap of 5-feet, 2-inches, two inches clear of Paradise’s Hunter Rogers. Cook also was second in the triple jump at 35-8 as part of this sensational performance. She also tried her legs at the 200 dash later in the meet.
Madeline Page is moving on to the area meet after taking second in the shot put, marking at 36-8¼. Kolbi Klein from Nocona advanced by taking third in discus at 90-7, while Aubrey Gill of Bowie narrowly missed out taking fifth (86-1½). Read more in the mid-week Bowie News.

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

Published

on

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.
