Bowie boys finish third at district track meet
The Bowie track teams competed at the district track meet this week at Iowa Park and had a slew of athletes qualify for area.
The boy’s team finished third overall and the girl’s team finished seventh overall.
The Lady Rabbits saw Harlei Hudson place third in the 100 meters as she moves on to area. She also joins the 4×200 meter relay team that finished fourth and is moving on as well with Bailey McGlothlin, Callie Curry and Melissa Martinez.
The boy’s team had three athletes finish first in their events. Tucker Jones won the 110 meter hurdles.
Braden Rhyne then beat Jones by a hundredth of a second to win the 300 meter hurdles.
Tyler Richey then won the pole vault event as well, moving on with teammates Case Curry and Griffin Richey who finished second and fourth.
Other area qualifiers for Bowie include Sterling Harrington finishing third in the shot put, Alex Castro getting fourth in the 1600 meters, Russell Anderson placing fourth in the 400 meters and Rhyne getting third in the high jump.
Jones, Rhyne, Richey and Anderson also qualified in the 4×400 meter relay as they finished third overall.
The area meet is scheduled for April 11 at Breckenridge, where a top four finish will be needed for athletes to qualify for the regional meet.
Results for all Bowie varsity athletes who qualified and competed in the finals of their events are in the weekend 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.
