HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL: Bowie boys dim City View
The Bowie High School boys’ basketball team has picked up the pace in recent games, and this past Friday was no different.
The Jackrabbits tossed in a season-high point total in an 85-20 blitzkrieg over District 3A-9 foe Wichita Falls City View.
With the win, Bowie moved into a first-place tie in the district with Henrietta since the Bearcats suffered their first 3A-9 loss to Paradise, also on Friday. Bowie and Henrietta will play on Friday in their first meeting of the season, after the Jackrabbits played at Boyd on Tuesday.
Ten different Bowie players scored, and the Jackrabbits outscored City View 29-8 after one quarter of play and they were up 49-10 at recess.
Kaden Ogle was Bowie’s leading scorer with 18 points, including three 3-pointers and six free throws. Read more in The 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.
