Nocona and Gold-Burg opened district play with convincing wins Oct. 9 while Saint Jo and Forestburg suffered tough losses.

Brief summaries of area county games follow:

Nocona 49, Chico 7

The Indians nearly had a shutout but managed to get the road win. Nocona Coach Jeff Hill said Chico turnovers and Nocona capitalizing on them was a big key to the win.

“We took advantage of those opportunities, and I’m proud of how our guys executed offensively when it happened,” Hill said. “We would have had a shutout if not for a pick-six which the defense made a really good play.”

Peaster jumped out to a 20-0 lead midway through the first quarter and Bowie was never fully able to recover in a 50-14 District 4-3A Division I game Oct. 9.

Bowie, which lost its second straight game, is 4-3 overall while Peaster is 3-4. Rabbit Coach Tyler Price said Peaster capitalized on Rabbit mistakes.

“When you don’t do your job, you get exposed,” Price said. “The same mistakes are continually showing up and we’re not able to fix them right now.” Price said a good look in the mirror by both players and coaches has to happen if things are going to improve.
