Bowie volleyball crushes Bryson 3-0
The Bowie Lady Rabbits opened their season with a dominant win against Bryson at home on Tuesday night.
The Lady Rabbits won in straight sets 3-0 against the Cowgirls as Bowie starts to work through its biggest early season challenge, figuring out its rotation.
The Lady Rabbits come into this season with only three varsity returners on its roster as the rest of the team gets up to speed.
New players at key positions like setter and libero as well as finding out certain players roles and what combinations of players go with each other are all still being figured out.
The good news is despite all of those things still needing to be solved, Bowie still took it to a 1A team like it is supposed to do.
Bryson has had great recent success as a solid playoff team up until struggling last year.
The Lady Rabbits jumped out to a 10-5 lead in the first set, but let their guard down a bit to allow the Cowgirls to come back and tie it 15-15.
Bowie rebounded and closed the first set on a 10-2 run to win 25-17.
The second set saw the Lady Rabbits lead most of the way again, leading 18-12.
Bryson won five straight points to cut the lead to one point 18-17, but that stretch was as close as the team got to turning things around. Bowie went 7-4 the rest of the way to win the second set 25-21 to go up 2-0.
The third set saw the Lady Rabbits again go out to a big lead at the start and mid-game, up 19-11.
This time, there would be no comeback attempt from the Cowgirls as Bowie shut the door to win the set easily 25-14 and the match 3-0.

A positive culture can be tough to install but will reap dividends if done correctly.

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.
