Lady Rabbits play in final tournament
The Bowie Lady Rabbits had a tough final tournament at Graham last weekend.
The Lady Rabbits went 0-6 during the three-day tournament as they tried to get some momentum going with nothing but a district schedule ahead of them.
Bowie first played Mineral Wells. The game only went to three innings due to tournament schedule restraints as the Lady Rams won 9-0. Serenity Klump got the only hit and stolen base for the Lady Rabbits while Rhyan Carle drew the only walk.
Bowie next played against Muenster in a game that went six innings. The Lady Hornets won 18-5. Sadie Britt led the team with two RBIs and she hit a home run. Chloe Kinney and Beau Combs each drove in one run.
On the second day of the tournament the Lady Rabbits played Archer City.
The Lady Cats won 18-3, winning in three innings due to the run-rule. Imala Walker drove in two runs with a double to lead the team offensively.
Against state-ranked Haskell, Bowie lost 15-2 against the Maidens. The game went four innings long.
Laci Goodwin drove in a run with a triple and then later scored on the base paths.
On the final day of the tournament, the Lady Rabbits played their most competitive games.
Against Springtown, Bowie lost 8-4. Walker led the team with two RBIs. Victoria Cox and Laney Oliver each drove in a run as well.
In the final game the Lady Rabbits played Brownwood. The Lady Lions won 11-7 after five innings. Bowie had five different players drive in one run and the team finished with 12 hits and six walks.

Bowie’s summer softball league team overcame a 6-1 deficit with a six-run third inning for a 7-6 win over Bridgeport in its season opener July 6.
The league consists of teams from Bowie, Nocona, Lindsay, Bridgeport, and Alvord and will last three weeks. Bowie will host games each week.
Bowie pitcher Hazel Trahern gave up two singles and a groundout to put the Sissies on the board in the first. It would be the only hits she gave up in the game. Two groundouts and a strikeout got the Lady Rabbits out of the jam.
Bowie got the run back in the bottom of the first with Andee Jo Miller opening the frame with a walk and a stolen base. She then scored on Kynlee Baker’s groundout to tie the game at one.

Rest. Run. Repeat.
Sage Keck, an 8th grader at Montague, lives by this mantra. No ifs, ands and buts about it.
She’s been running since fourth grade PE classes where she would run a mile every week. After discovering she could outrun the other students, she began to enjoy it and continued doing it.
Her success continued, as she finished 2nd overall against more than 200 runners at the Old Saint Jo 5K July 4. In last weekend’s Texas Junior Olympics, she reached the pinnacle of her career so far by qualifying for the United States of America Track and Field (USATF) National Junior Olympics in Norwalk, Calif. in three events.
