The Bowie High School volleyball team faced an unknown opponent in the Conference 3A-Region I area round on Saturday.
And the Lady Rabbits found themselves in a contentious battle during the first set against Colorado City at the Marshall Sports Complex.
Colorado City’s Makaylah Rivera controlled the action early, especially at the net, as the Lady Wolves forged ahead to a 13-8 lead.
“I thought we were prepared,” Bowie head coach Jeanie Stark said. “I thought we had plenty of time. We got there early, and went to the back court to warm up. But, we weren’t clicking.”
Then, as quick as a person snaps their fingers, Bowie went on a 6-0 rally to take the lead and eventually the Lady Rabbits secured a three-game sweep by scores of 25-17, 25-10, 25-20.
Bowie improved to 28-13, and prepared to face District 3A-8 foe Holliday for a third time in the 3A regional quarterfinal on Tuesday at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls.
The Lady Rabbits were facing the daunting task of beating the same team three times in a given season. See a complete list of regional volleyball scores and more from this story in the Nov. 9 Bowie News.

Bowie, playing on a short rest, held with host Jacksboro for most of the volleyball match Oct. 1, but the Tigerettes pulled away late and defeated the Lady Rabbits 3-1 (26-24, 12-25, 25-14, 22-25).

The match was scheduled for Oct. 2 but was moved. Both teams are now 2-2 in District 6-3A.

Jacksboro got out to a quick lead in game one before Olivia Stewart’s kill and a three-point Olivia Richey serving run put the visitors up 8-7. Junior Abby Reneau broke things open with a six-point string to give Bowie a 15-8 cushion and force Jacksboro into a timeout.

The Tigerettes came back and took an 18-16 lead. KP Rutherford’s kill broke the serve and allowed Molly Enlow to tie the game at 18.

Gold-Burg Football Coach Austin Norman called his Bears’ 35-32 loss to host Perrin a “barn burner”.

It most definitely was as Gold-Burg, now 1-5 for the year gave the 5-1 Pirates everything they wanted for four quarters. Gold-Burg scored on the last play of the first half on a Peyton Epperson run with the two point conversion cutting the deficit to 20-16.

The Bears were their own worst enemy to open the third quarter with face mask and offside penalties moving the Pirates downfield setting up a first-and-goal at the Bear three. Defense by Epperson, Keelyn Case and Barrett Allen and a pair of Perrin penalties helped stop the drive and force a turnover on downs.

Gold-Burg was slapped with an intentional grounding penalty on the first play, giving Perrin a safety and extending the Pirate lead to 22-16. Defense by Epperson and JoJuan Grace after a first down run closed out the third quarter.
