Prairie Valley
The Prairie Valley Bulldogs lost a tough game to Midway at home on Tuesday night.

“We got off to a slow start down 9-2,” Stephens said. “It took us a few minutes to adjust to their speed, but we battled back in the first quarter and were only down 11-9 after one. It went downhill after that.”
Isaac Yeargin led the team with eight points and grabbing eight rebounds. Tyler Winkler Konner Ritchie and Eli Croxton each scored seven points.

State rankings are a nice thing … if you show you deserve it.

Nocona and Hawley came into their Nov. 4 area round volleyball matchup both ranked in the top three in Class 2A Division I. Little more than an hour later, No.3 Nocona had shown it deserved its ranking with a 3-0 (25-22,25-19, 25-17) victory over No.2 Hawley before a good crowd at Brock High.

The Lady Indians up their record to 32-12 with the Lady ‘Cats having their season ended at 31-9. Nocona Coach Sandy Langford said her squad made some defensive adjustments against Hawley. “We made a lot of changes. We moved in defensively (closer to the net),” Langford noted. “From this level on, you have to make adjustments because everyone is going to be good.”
