Bowie High School’s softball team wrapped up its own tournament on Saturday with a convincing 10-4 victory over Conference 4A Springtown.
Jayde Brezina provided four RBIs and Kellbie Throckmorton didn’t allow any runs during her three innings of work.
“We hit the ball well, and we found ways to get on base,” said second-year Bowie head coach Brant Farris. “We were able to get leads in both of those games.”
Farris heaped praise on Throckmorton, who allowed four hits in three innings, but didn’t issue any walks.
“Kellbie did a great job of hitting spots, and she was able to move the ball in and out,” Farris said. “She kept them off-balance.”
Throckmorton induced Springtown into several pop-ups and grounders.

Bowie 10, Springtown 4

Taylor McCarty and Addy Cook both went 3-for-3 with two runs scored, and Henslee Ogle drew a pair of walks as the Lady Rabbits topped Springtown.

Nocona’s volleyball team headed to Bowie for a three-team scrimmage with the host team and Ponder Aug. 7.

Each team played the other two for 30 minutes in the Lady Rabbit gym. Lady Indian Coach Sandy Langford said she thought things went well for a first scrimmage.

“Just like any young team that is trying to find itself in a first scrimmage, We looked really good at times and at others not so much,” Langford said. “We’re forming a new team after losing a lot of seniors.”

Langford said the squad would have one thing go wrong and it would explode into several things. That will need to stop for a successful year in Langford’s mind.

Two major portions of Nocona’s 2023 bond issue are very close to being completed.

The new high school gym should be complete in time for the volleyball team to begin practice there Aug. 1, according to Superintendent Dr. David Waters. Ground on the 22,000 square foot facility was broken on Oct. 18, 2024.

Waters said a punch list meeting with the construction manager was scheduled for earlier this week with final touchups expected shortly afterwards. Fans should be able to enjoy the facility for the volleyball team’s season opener Aug. 11.

Fans will enjoy the new gym from entering the facility which has glass walls, enabling fans to watch the game from the foyer. Once inside the gym itself, there is stadium, chair back seating on the home side allowing for a much more comfortable experience.
