Former Bellevue High School standout Broc Terry played in the Texas 6-Man Coaches Association boys’ all-star basketball game on Saturday.
Terry scored two points as the East suffered a 68-63 loss to the West at D.L. Ligon Coliseum on the Midwestern State University campus in Wichita Falls.
The District 1A-21 most valuable player also helped the East with three steals and one assist during his playing time.
The East has not defeated West since 2007, when the all-star game took place in Lubbock.
East’s Brady Chamberlain made a layup to forge a 60-all tie with 1 minute, 57 seconds left to play, but the West canned eight free throws to prevail.
Carlos Espino, from state Conference 1A champion Texline, tallied 15 points and converted three 3-pointers to claim most valuable player honors.
Brady Chamberlain paced the East with 16 points.
This marked the second straight year Bellevue was represented in the all-star game, with Brandt Cassetty playing 2014.

Montague County All-Stars host Fall Games

Published

on

For the second year, Montague County All-Stars hosted its annual Fall Games at Saint Jo High School Oct. 21.

Representatives from nearly every county elementary and high school took part in the day-long event. Students with assorted disabilities learned how to play basketball in the morning and volleyball in the afternoon.

Helping teach the finer points of both games were players and coaches from all the area high schools. Individual skills such as passing, dribbling, and shooting were taught in one of the school’s gyms before athletes were broken up into teams and played timed games in the other gym.

Some of the younger athletes had issues with the ball dribbling and got hit in the nose. Eventually they all got the hang of it, one even getting a basket.
