The Nocona Lady Indians had an opportunity to break Boyd’s undefeated district streak on Tuesday night, but ultimately fell to the Conference 3A seventh ranked Lady Yellow Jackets.
Boyd defeated Nocona by scores of 17-25, 25-23, 18-25 and 11-25, but that doesn’t mean the Lady Indians didn’t put up quite a fight.
“I felt like we played one of the best matches we had played all year,” said Head Coach Tiffany Clay. “We were all focused, made good decisions, and most importantly stayed aggressive.”
Payton Ferguson led the aggressive attacks with 16 kills. She also contributed 22 digs and one block assist.
On defense, Magye Fenoglio led the Lady Indians with 29 digs while contributing two ace serves and one set assist.
Setters Trystin Fenoglio and Karson Phipps were on top of their game with a combined 30 set assists. Trystin Fenoglio also contributed 10 digs and one ace, while Phipps added 11 digs and one ace. Read more in the Sept. 24 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.
