The Bowie tennis team started its fall season this week with four matches at three different locations.
The Jackrabbits went 3-1 overall, with some matches not being with full rosters on either side as the preseason is just starting.
It is Bowie’s second season competing in team tennis during the fall season with Coach Dayna Boothe leading the program. A lot of new freshman faces are expected in big roles as the Jackrabbits hope to do more than just compete well like they did last year.
Bowie traveled to Mineral Wells on July 25 and played matches against Western Hills and Mineral Wells.
Against Western Hills, the Jackrabbits dominated 13-2. Bowie won all eight of its girl matches and five of its six boy’s matches.
Against Mineral Wells, the Jackrabbits dominated even more, winning with a clean sweep 16-0 against the Rams. Again, both teams were missing players.
On July 30, Bowie traveled to Little Elm to play a huge 6A program. The Lobos won 16-3 to give the Jackrabbits their first loss.
Bowie then hosted its match against Northside on July 31. The Jackrabbits won 12-7 despite not filling out its boy’s roster in the match as all five were freshman.
