FRIDAY NIGHT FINALS: Montague County Blues

Published

on

Early in the fourth quarter, it appeared as if the Bowie High School football team was going to receive the football after a Brock fumble deep in Jackrabbit territory.

However, the officials reversed their original call and awarded Brock the ball.

The Eagles scored a short time later en route to a 36-26 victory over Bowie at Jackrabbit Stadium in District 4-3A-I action on Friday.

Quarterback Lawson Mickler hooked up with Jesse Vaughn on a pair of TD passes in the second half as the Jackrabbits attempted to stay stride for stride with the Eagles.

However, Brock pulled away by outscoring Bowie 15-6 in the fourth quarter.

Kevin Stallcup scored his sixth touchdown of the season on a short run in the opening frame.

Bowie dropped to 1-6, 0-2 in 4-3A-I. The team will play at Breckenridge on Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m.
