Bowie, Gold-Burg track teams run at Jacksboro
Both Bowie and Gold-Burg track teams competed at Jacksboro last week to get some good competition in the still early part of the track season.
While team results were not listed in the results available, individual results were given in a meet that featured a lot of schools, both big and small to compete against in most events.
With that in mind, only a few competitors did well enough to score their team points by finishing in the top six at their event.
For the Lady Rabbits, Harlei Hudson finished third in the 100 meter dash. Also Kailyn Bettis finished fifth in the high jump. The individuals who run on each relay team was not listed, but the 4×100 and 4×400 teams both finished fourth as well to earn points.
The Jackrabbits had Tucker Jones and Tyler Richey finish first at their events. Jones won the 110 meter hurdles and also scored points for his team with a fifth place finish in the 300 meter hurdles and fourth place in the long jump.
Richey won the pole vault while Case Curry was right behind him in second place. Braden Rhyne got fourth place in the high jump and sixth place in the 300 meter hurdles.
Sterling Harrington finished fourth in the shot put, Alex Castro placed fourth in the 3200 meter race and Russell Anderson got fifth place in the 400 meter race.
The relay races did not list any individual names, but the 4×200 and 4×400 teams both finished in fourth place.
For Gold-Burg, competing against bigger schools only one athlete broke through the top six in their event to score a point. Jayon Grace finished third in the long jump.
Varsity results for athletes from Bowie and Gold-Burg are in the mid-week edition of the Bowie News.
A positive culture can be tough to install but will reap dividends if done correctly.
Trinadee Imotichey is trying to do just that with her Forestburg Lady Longhorns.
Imotichey, an assistant coach on the 2025 Forestburg volleyball team, was moved into the head coaching position. Last year’s coach, Cori Hayes, took over as football head coach.
Imotichey, in her 2nd year in Forestburg, said she learned a lot from Hayes and is ready to take over.

Bowie’s summer softball league team overcame a 6-1 deficit with a six-run third inning for a 7-6 win over Bridgeport in its season opener July 6.
The league consists of teams from Bowie, Nocona, Lindsay, Bridgeport, and Alvord and will last three weeks. Bowie will host games each week.
Bowie pitcher Hazel Trahern gave up two singles and a groundout to put the Sissies on the board in the first. It would be the only hits she gave up in the game. Two groundouts and a strikeout got the Lady Rabbits out of the jam.
Bowie got the run back in the bottom of the first with Andee Jo Miller opening the frame with a walk and a stolen base. She then scored on Kynlee Baker’s groundout to tie the game at one.

Rest. Run. Repeat.
Sage Keck, an 8th grader at Montague, lives by this mantra. No ifs, ands and buts about it.
She’s been running since fourth grade PE classes where she would run a mile every week. After discovering she could outrun the other students, she began to enjoy it and continued doing it.
Her success continued, as she finished 2nd overall against more than 200 runners at the Old Saint Jo 5K July 4. In last weekend’s Texas Junior Olympics, she reached the pinnacle of her career so far by qualifying for the United States of America Track and Field (USATF) National Junior Olympics in Norwalk, Calif. in three events.
