After getting moved to Sunday due to weather, the Bowie High School Bass Club took to the water for their first contest since early December to pick up where they left off as they fished on Lake Texoma.
While they did not repeat as King of the Lakes, the club finished second overall out of 28 other clubs. This was thanks to four of the six teams catching at least one fish on a day when that was an achievement in itself.
Top team was Blake Allen, who caught four fish for a total of 12.66 pounds and finished sixth overall. The team of Ian Ashley and Cooper Gamblin were not far behind as they caught three fish weighing in at 10.21 pounds, finishing 11th overall.
Jeremy Stone was able to catch two fish weighing in at 8.62 pounds, finishing 13th. The team of Ayden Hodges and Riley Blackburn was able to bring in one fish weighing 3.29 pounds.
The second place finish was just enough to keep Bowie in first place overall in the Team of the Year standings in the North Texas division, only one point ahead of clubs from Denton and Van Alstyne.

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.
