Nocona
The Nocona Lady Indians traveled to Sanger on Friday night.
It was a slow start, but Nocona beat Sanger in four sets.
The Lady Indians lost the first set 25-20, but would come back to win the next three sets with close scores of 30-28, 25-23 and 25-20.
Coach Tanya Samples was glad her team got the win, but laments that a lot of the damage was the frustrating self inflicted type.
Nocona next plays a tough dual at home on Saturday starting at 10 a.m. against Glen Rose and Brock.

Gold-Burg
The Gold-Burg Lady Bears played in their first five set match on Friday against Quanah at home.
The Lady Bears came out on the wrong side, losing a game that got away from them.
Gold-Burg won the first two sets 25-17 and 25-23. Unfortunately, the Lady Indians picked up some momentum.
After winning the third set 25-20, Quanah was just able to edge out the Lady Bears in the fourth set with extra points 31-29. After that, the Lady Indians grabbed control in the fifth set, winning the 15-8.
There is a lot for Gold-Burg to learn from a tough loss like this. The Lady Bears next play at Perrin-Whitt at 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 28.

Nocona got its new press box into place this week at Jack Crane Stadium. The old press box, which was in place for more than 60 years, was taken out in early June and moved to Indian Valley Raceway. The new press box was by the Southern Bleacher Company out of Graham. Athletic Director Black Crutsinger said they looked at a lot of press boxes and decided they liked the one at Lindsay High School and went with that model. Sean Hutson operated the crane from the Hurd Crane Service that put the press box up for Nocona.
