BOWIE NOTEBOOK: Boosters make purchases
The Bowie Athletic Boosters Club made several purchases during Monday’s meeting in the Bowie High School commons.
The Boosters purchased a hitting tee for the new indoor workout facility totaling about $450.
In addition, softball caps valued at $500 and baseball caps at $1,500 were funded as well.
“The players purchase their own, and the rest is for sale,” Bowie Athletic Booster Club member Craig Stallcup said.
Discussions also took place regarding renovations to the boys’ varsity basketball locker room to build and install wooden lockers with locking compartments.
The next meeting will take place on Monday at 6 p.m. in the commons area.

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.
