Nocona

The Nocona Lady Indians started their season Tuesday with a dual at Iowa Park that also featured Windthorst.
It was up and down as the Lady Indians won in straight sets against the Lady Trojans and lost in four sets against the Lady Hawks.
The first match against the host was competitive the first two sets. Iowa Park won by the slimmest of margins 25-23 while Nocona won the second set in extra points 27-25 to tie the match up.
From there, it was all Lady Hawks as they easily took the third set 25-11 and won the fourth set 25-19 to win the match.
The Lady Indians did not have long to dwell on the loss as they played Windthorst shortly after. The first set was back and forth competitive affair. Fortunately, Nocona was able to pull away by the slimmest of margins to win 26-24.
Nocona plays at 5 p.m. on Aug. 18 at Ponder.

Saint Jo
The Saint Jo Lady Panthers started their season playing Bluff Dale on Tuesday.
The Lady Panthers picked up an easy win in straight sets. None were competitive as Saint Jo won 25-8, 25-10, 25-9.
It was not a match where Coach Charlie Hamilton got to see much of her team sadly. Once the ball crossed the net in any sort of fashion, it usually did not come back over. Evaluating how the team played was tough from that standpoint.
Saint Jo next travels to Gold-Burg to play at 7 p.m. on Aug. 18.

Gold-Burg
The Gold-Burg Lady Bears hosted Savoy on Tuesday to start their season.
The Lady Bears won decisively in straight sets based on the strength of their serving and constant attacks. Each set was won by double-digits 25-9, 25-14, 25-10.
Coach Cheryl Cromleigh loved what she saw as the team played to its strengths and won big because of it.
The team will have a tougher challenge when Gold-Burg hosts Saint Jo at 7 p.m. on Aug. 18.

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 gives it a go, falls to Perrin 35-32

Published

on

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.
