Both basketball programs from Forestburg and Prairie Valley competed in a tournament in Chico Thursday through Saturday.
Of the six games played Saturday, the final day of action, the four teams compiled a combined record of 2-4 with the Horns and Lady Horns taking the victories.
The Longhorns opened the day’s events against Boyd.
Despite keeping the score close, the Horns struggles at the free throw line was a glaring issue through the first half as the Yellowjackets took a 19-13 lead at the half. The game remained close; however, Boyd would prevail 48-40.
“We just did not play that well on either side of the ball,” said head coach Steve Sandusky. “On defense we looked sluggish and were not as aggressive as we need to be.”
Taten Vann and J.D. Moore paced the team with 12 points in the contest. Vann recorded three rebounds, two assists and two steals; Moore added six rebounds.
The Prairie Valley Lady Bulldogs took the court next, playing the away team to the Boyd.
PV had a rough go at the game as they were unable to break through to double digits until the fourth quarter. Boyd won 49-10. Read more, and see box scores, in the mid-week Bowie News.

Bowie, playing on a short rest, held with host Jacksboro for most of the volleyball match Oct. 1, but the Tigerettes pulled away late and defeated the Lady Rabbits 3-1 (26-24, 12-25, 25-14, 22-25).

The match was scheduled for Oct. 2 but was moved. Both teams are now 2-2 in District 6-3A.

Jacksboro got out to a quick lead in game one before Olivia Stewart’s kill and a three-point Olivia Richey serving run put the visitors up 8-7. Junior Abby Reneau broke things open with a six-point string to give Bowie a 15-8 cushion and force Jacksboro into a timeout.

The Tigerettes came back and took an 18-16 lead. KP Rutherford’s kill broke the serve and allowed Molly Enlow to tie the game at 18.

Gold-Burg Football Coach Austin Norman called his Bears’ 35-32 loss to host Perrin a “barn burner”.

It most definitely was as Gold-Burg, now 1-5 for the year gave the 5-1 Pirates everything they wanted for four quarters. Gold-Burg scored on the last play of the first half on a Peyton Epperson run with the two point conversion cutting the deficit to 20-16.

The Bears were their own worst enemy to open the third quarter with face mask and offside penalties moving the Pirates downfield setting up a first-and-goal at the Bear three. Defense by Epperson, Keelyn Case and Barrett Allen and a pair of Perrin penalties helped stop the drive and force a turnover on downs.

Gold-Burg was slapped with an intentional grounding penalty on the first play, giving Perrin a safety and extending the Pirate lead to 22-16. Defense by Epperson and JoJuan Grace after a first down run closed out the third quarter.
