Bowie tennis falls to Holliday

Published

on

Heidi Siebert hit a powerful backhand down the line as she stayed undefeated, winning both of her matches.

The Bowie Jackrabbit tennis team got a preview for a future district match when they hosted Holliday for a pre-district match on Monday.
The Eagles won the close match 11-8, getting some manner of revenge for their loss to the Jackrabbits last year during district play.
Bowie did not have a great day for its doubles teams, with only its top two teams earning wins early on.
First position girls doubles team Heidi Siebert and Laney Enlow continued their preseason dominance, winning defiantly 8-4 to improve their overall record to 7-0 this early in the season.
On the boy’s side, first position doubles team Rush Williams and Brooks Gray dominated in their match, winning 8-3.
Unfortunately, the Jackrabbits were trailing 5-2 heading into singles matches, but Bowie would rally.
Siebert and Williams would both win their matches in first position. Williams won 8-4 and Siebert 8-5. This improved Siebert’s record to 7-0 in singles matches this pre-season.
Enlow kept her day undeafeated winning a close match in the third position girl’s singles.
She won the tie breaker 9-7 to win the overall match 9-8.
Alyssa Airington in the fourth position girl’s singles 8-3. Gentry Gray won in the sixth position girl’s singles 8-5. Bryson Mills also won in the sixth position in boy’s singles with the score being 8-4.
Unfortunately, it was not enough for Bowie to come back after digging the hole. Holliday only needed to win four of the 12 singles matches to win overall and the Eagles ended up winning five of them to win 11-8.

Red River Bass Club closes season

Published

on

The Red River High School Bass Club has officially wrapped up a competitive and rewarding fishing season, highlighted by a strong showing at the regional tournament on Possum Kingdom Lake and participation in the Texas High School Bass Association State Tournament on Lake Texoma.

Five teams from Red River qualified for the regional tournament, underscoring the continued growth and strength of the program. Those teams included Cooper Johnson and Colt Henry; Colten Anglin and Tayt Lawrence; Bryce DeMore and Ranger Carle; Lane Smith and Carson Caudle; and Walker Strahan and Bryce Ramsey.

Facing tough conditions at Possum Kingdom Lake, Red River anglers battled through a challenging bite against a large and competitive field. Leading the Red River were Walker Strahan and Bryce Ramsey, who placed 53rd overall with four fish weighing a total of 8.53 pounds. Lane Smith and Carson Caudle followed in 65th place, bringing in two fish totaling 7.18 pounds. While the standings did not reflect top finishes, the experience gained at regionals proved valuable for the young anglers, many of whom competed at this level for the first time.

Stewart becoming new BHS golf coach

Published

on

New Bowie golf coach Remy Stewart may be new to the Rabbit golfers but definitely not to the sport.

Stewart, in his second year in Bowie, spent 11 years as golf coach in Farwell before coming here. He was powerlifting coach last year and insists one sports will not be prioritized over the other despite the pair each taking place in the early spring.

He originally had never planned on coaching golf.

“When I originally interviewed (in Farwell) it was for a football/basketball position but they also asked if I would be willing to coach golf,” Stewart said. “I said yes and the rest is history.”
