Bowie, Nocona all-district boys teams announced
The Bowie and Nocona boy’s basketball all-district list is out.
State tournament team City View swept most of the superlative awards, but the Jackrabbits and Indians both had several of their players honored in the first and second teams.
Bowie’s Tucker Jones was one of the few non-City View players earning a superlative award, winning co-newcomer of the year for his athletic play off the bench for the Jackrabbits as a sophomore.
Bowie’s top two scoring guards, explosive senior Cade Thompson and crafty junior Brody Armstrong, were named to the district’s first team. Senior post players Riley Blackburn with his post scoring and Drew Weber with his outside shooting were named to the district’s second team.
Honorable mention honors went to the lightning quick starting junior point guard A.J. Whatley and bruising starting senior forward Logan Hutson.
For Nocona, three of its starting backcourt members were named to the first team. Athletic senior point guard Lyndon Fenoglio, sharpshooting senior guard Adam Meekins and sophomore slasher Brady McCasland were all given first team honors.
The tall defensive presence in the post Sam Davis was named to the second team. Tough starting sophomore forward Conley Kleinhans was given honorable mention honors as well as scoring post player Ryder Oswald off the bench.

Saint Jo hosted its own volleyball tournament Sept. 10-12.
In its first match, the Lady Panthers bested Sam Rayburn in a b est-of-three match 2-1 (25-11, 23-25, 25-14.) In the opener, senior Tatum Morman staked the Lady Panthers to a 4-0 lead with help from Kamron Skidmore and Olivia Johnson kills. The Lady Rebels would come back and tie the game at seven.
Savannah Hill’s kill broke serve and allowed Abby Carter to string together seven points. An ace and a Hill kill helped keep the drive alive. Hill later rolled off six points in a row, helped by two aces, to go up 23-10. Sam Rayburn broke serve but Saint Jo finished the game with a single Morman point.
Sam Rayburn came right out of the gate firing in the second game leading 4-0. A single Carter point, thrown down by a Hill block, and Hill’s four-point skein put the Lady Panthers up 8-6. Sam Rayburn tied the game at eight.

Forestburg’s volleyball team gave visiting Chico a solid test Sept. 8, but the Lady Dragons rebounded from a third-set loss to pull out the 3-1 win (25-23, 25-19, 25-27, 25-19).
The Lady Longhorns got out to a quick start with aces from freshmen Madi Wadsworth and Lacie Shotwell staking the squad to a 4-1 lead in game one. Wadsworth later broke a 4-all tie with a kill.
Addy Conway rolled off four straight points, helped by a Wadsworth kill to give Forestburg an 11-9 lead. Chico took a 16-14 lead but a Brenna Briles ace and Jocelyn Rich’s two points forced Chico into a timeout down 17-19.
The respite worked as it would be Forestburg’s last lead of game one, the Lady ‘Horns not having another serving point.

After splitting the first two games with Vernon Northside, Bowie’s volleyball team turned things out and wound with a 3-1 match win (25-17, 15-25, 25-17, 25-17).
Molly Enlow used two aces amidst a four-point string to give the Lady Rabbits a 5-1 lead in game one. Senior KP Rutherford’s pair of points extended the lead to 8-3.
Northside cut the deficit to 10-11 before Rutherford’s kill broke serve.
Bella Culwell’s point, aided by an Ellie Mowery kill, put Bowie up 13-10. Northside tied the game at 13 before Rutherford came through with another pair for a 17-14 lead. Lillie Maddox also had a deuce for a 20-15 lead and force a Lady INdian timeout.
Northside broke serve but a Sophie Maddox block and Lillie Maddox three-point string gave the squad game point at 24-16. The squads exchanged side outs to end the game.
