HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL: Buckle Up For Lane week has arrived

Lane Fenoglio was so excited to hear when Sanda Fenoglio became unexpectedly pregnant in 1998.
Sanda had a daughter named, Magye, who today is one of the premier liberos in all of Texas. Magye is a senior this year.
“It’s bittersweet,” said Sanda Fenoglio, Magye’s mother. “We would like everyone to know that we have been overwhelmed at the support we have received through the years.
“Magye never met Lane,” Sanda continued. “But, through this tournament, and her seeing the support and hearing all about her, Magye found out what a fun person and good athlete she was.”
Lane Fenoglio was killed in an auto accident on July 11, 1998, the summer before what would have been her sophomore year at Nocona High School.
The tournament is called “Buckle Up For Lane’s Sake” because Lane was not wearing her seat belt at the time of the accident. The event has brought awareness for making sure you are safe and properly belted before venturing out onto the road.
Thirty teams will compete in five pools on Thursday at various gymnasiums around Nocona, including the one inside the Nocona Baptist Church.
Janna Fenoglio, Lane’s mother, marvels at the staying power for the tournament – which is now in its 17th year.
“I think this has been totally awesome,” Janna Fenoglio said. “I am proud of Nocona, and how we all pulled together as needed.”
Nocona head coach Tiffany Clay has both played and coached in the tournament.
“One-hundred percent of the proceeds go back to the graduating seniors every year,” Clay said. “The Fenoglio family has raised more than $200,000 from this tournament.” Read more in the Aug. 31 Bowie News.

Nocona got its new press box into place this week at Jack Crane Stadium. The old press box, which was in place for more than 60 years, was taken out in early June and moved to Indian Valley Raceway. The new press box was by the Southern Bleacher Company out of Graham. Athletic Director Black Crutsinger said they looked at a lot of press boxes and decided they liked the one at Lindsay High School and went with that model. Sean Hutson operated the crane from the Hurd Crane Service that put the press box up for Nocona.

Along with the best results in each event, at the end the overall best cowboy and cowgirl in each age division was awarded as well.
The lead line division, in which an adult helps the young competitors, saw Rylee Stewart win the first in poles, barrel racing and mystery event on her way to win top cowgirl.
Hattie Snow got the fastest time in the flags event and Lany Shupak got the fastest goat time. Riggin Bishop got named the top cowboy in the division.
In the eight-and-under division, Whitley Goins won the top cowgirl and Trell Carpenter won top cowboy. Goins got the fastest times in barrel racing, flags and mystery event. Carpenter got the fastest time in poles and goats.
In the 9-12 age division, Sage Keck won the top cowgirl while Chisum Carpenter won the top cowboy. Keck got the fastest times in four of the five divisions. Only Layna Taylor getting the fastest goat time prevented her from winning in a clean sweep.
In the 13-18 age division, Tess Egenbacher won the top overall cowgirl award.
Kiley McCracken won both the barrel racing and flags event. Emma Strahan won the poles and mystery event. Hadlee Bryan won the goats event.
