HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL: In Nocona finale, Eagles defeat Indians
The Nocona High School baseball team wrapped up its season Monday with an 8-2 loss on the road at Holliday.
Nocona dropped to 8-13, and finished 4-10 in District 3A-9. The Indians finished seventh in this eight-team district, with single wins over Jacksboro and Henrietta and two wins over City View.
Kameron Hill smacked a pair of hits and scored both Indians’ runs. Zach Trentham walked and scored. Jaxon Phipps and Ryder Nobile both slugged doubles. Daniel Keck provided a pair of RBIs on a grounder and fly out.
In his final game wearing Nocona’s orange-and-black, Phipps yielded eight earned runs on 11 hits with three walks and two strikeouts.
He threw strikes 63.1 percent of the time, but gave up home runs to Holliday’s Bailey Broyles and Chase Duncan.
Nocona opened up the scoring with a run in the first inning, then Holliday responded by scoring twice in the bottom of the first and second. 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.
