Recent Bowie High School graduate David Correa has one more football game left.
Correa will represent the West Texas team during the Oil Bowl game at 7:30 p.m. today at Memorial Stadium in Wichita Falls.
“It’s always a special when one of our kids has an opportunity to play in the Oil Bowl,” Bowie head football coach Dylan Stark said.
Stark said Correa is a fine representative for the Bowie football team and the community.
Many ex-Bowie football players have competed in this prestigious game: Garland McCoy in 2014, Tod Jackson in 2013, Madison Firmin in 2012 and Aaron Chokas in 2011.
McCoy went on to play for Texas Lutheran in Seguin. Firmin became a long snapper at Harding University in Searcy, Ark.
Correa said he’s undecided on his future at the point, but some form of college football still remains a possibility.
This week has been enjoyable for Correa, who has stayed in a residence hall at Midwestern State University.
“It’s been a blast,” Correa said. “I’m having a good time, and it’s been a learning experience with all these great athletes. It’s been an honor to be invited to this, and play with some of the best athletes around.”
