Nocona
The Nocona Lady Indians hosted Jacksboro on Saturday at noon.
The Lady Indians took it to the Lady Tigers as they won in straight sets. Only the third set got a little hairy at the beginning, but Nocona won comfortably 25-13, 25-6 and 25-18.
Averee Kleinhans led the team with 18 kills. Ella Nunneley was second with 13 kills while setter Trystin Fenoglio had 32 assists. Laramie Hayes led the team with 11 digs.
The team came in with some heavy hearts still as Nocona supports Boyd after the recent tragic death of volleyball player Ashley Fout. The teams came together at the end to pray together in a show of support and Coach Tiffany Clay dedicated the game in her memory.
Saint Jo
The Saint Jo Lady Panthers won a competitive game on Friday at Savoy.
The Lady Panthers won in four sets to the Lady Cardinals as they struggled to adapt to the slower pace.
After winning the first two sets by comfortable margins 25-14 and 25-19, Savoy came back strong to win the third set 26-24. Saint Jo had to pull out all the stops to win the fourth set 27-25 to win the match and avoid going to five sets.
Hannah Reylings and Paityn Holley led the team with 23 kills combined while Kaitline Harris led the team with 24 assists to help lead the attack.

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.
