HIGH SCHOOL FISHING: Bowie anglers faring well
The Bowie High School fishing team is currently sitting in fifth place in the team of the year standings.
That’s after fishing in the Lake Granbury Tournament last Saturday.
All of Bowie’s two-person fishing teams also are in the top-50 percent of the angler of the year standings.
Jeremy Stone and Kyler Ratliff are tied for first spot. Ian Ashley and Christian Sanchez also are among the top-10 in eighth.
Hadley Morgan and Lane Hopson are 76th, Blake Allen and Will Hamilton 81st and Jared Stone in 131st.
At Granbury, Jeremy Stone and Ratliff weighed two fish at 6.33 pounds. Ian Ashley reeled in one fish that weighed 4.61 pounds.
Daniel Helsey and Ethan Legare from Lovejoy won the Granbury meet, weighing five fish totaling 18.61 pounds. That was more than four pounds better than Keller’s Walker Wilson and Jackson Wilson.
Bowie will compete again on Nov. 19 at the Possum Kingdom Invitational. That meet is scheduled to take place at Brazos River Authority No. 1 Scenic Point marina.

New Saint Jo Boy’s Basketball Coach Terry McLennan said the school’s family atmosphere is what prompted him to join the Panther family.
“This is an opportunity to be an important program but also part of a great community,” McLennan said. “I’ve been looking to get back to a small town environment like the one I grew up in and played ball and this should do that.”
McLennan played basketball in Hubbard outside of Waco. McLennan comes to town after being the assistant girl’s basketball coach in Grand Prairie.
McLennan contends he’s a defensive style of coach but says his team will focus on intensity.

After some coaching time in East Texas, Bret Botard will be the new girl’s basketball coach at Bowie.
Botard said it’s a chance to work with Bowie Athletic Director Tyler Price once again. Price was Botard’s assistant when he coached at Nocona.
“I wanted to get back into the area,” Botard said. “It’s a good community.”
Botard graduated high school in 1995 from Del Valle High School, outside Austin, and went to Texas Tech. He started his coaching career in Lubbock followed by returning to his alma mater where he was an assistant for his high school coach.
