HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL: Romine nets 21 in Bowie girls’ win
The ranked Bowie High School girls’ basketball remained perfect in district play through the first half of the season with a 68-39 victory over City View.
Bowie hasn’t lost a district game in several years, unbeaten in both the 2013-14 and 2014-15 campaigns.
Overall, Bowie stands at 19-6 overall and 7-0 in 3A-9.
The Lady Rabbits rolled to a 38-22 lead at halftime, and outscored the Lady Mustangs 19-6 in the final frame.
River Romine, who late last week was added to the McDonald’s All-Star Game nomination list, was Bowie’s leading scorer with 21 points. Romine also dished off five assists and three steals, leading the Lady Rabbits in those categories as well.
Overall, four Bowie played reached double-digit point totals, with Courtney Brady netting 17 points and Henslee Ogle and Addy Cook 10 apiece. Brady also snared a team-best eight rebounds. 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.
