Schools run at the Wichita Falls Endurance House
Almost every school in the area competed at the Wichita Falls Endurance House cross country meet on a rainy Wednesday.
The top performing teams from the coverage area were the Saint Jo girl’s team that finished in first place in the JV race and the Bowie boy’s team that finished third overall.
The area girl’s teams all competed in the JV race since its length was the same as the other races they will run this season. 5A and bigger schools lengthen the girl’s cross country race from 3,200 meters to 4,000 meters.
In the race, Saint Jo was led by Abigail Carter who finished seventh overall with a time of 13:01. The Lady Panther top five finishers included Taylor Patrick (13th), Savannah Hill (17th), Kaycee Clark (23rd) and Tatum Morman (31st).
Bowie finished fifth overall with its top runner Laney Segura finishing ninth overall with a time of 13:15. The team’s top five runners also included Brylie Hager (29th), Bella Lozano (32nd), Harlei Hudson (57th) and Isabella Caswell (63rd).
The Bellevue team finished 10th overall and was led by Mattie Broussard who finished second overall with a time of 12:33. The Lady Eagle’s top five runners also included Brittany Gill (54th), Kaycee Conner (64th), Mary Grace Broussard (66th) and Tristan Shook (86th).
Individual runners from schools included Nocona’s Bayler Smith finishing third overall with a time of 12:33 and Linzie Priddy from Prairie Valley who finished sixth overall with a time of 12:48.
In the boy’s race, Bowie was led by Isaac Renteria who finished third overall with a time of 16:48. He was followed close behind by teammate Brayden Willett who finished fourth overall.
The Jackrabbits top five runners also included Sebastian Martinez (11th), Monte Mayfield (33rd) and Russell Anderson (35th).
The Saint Jo team finished sixth overall in the race. The Panthers were led by Barrett Johnson who finished 21st overall with a time of 18:35. The team’s top five runners included Jayden Curry (25th), Elijah Young (26th), Julian Luna (32nd) and Ayden Giambruno (68th).
The Gold-Burg team finished 12th overall at the meet. The Bears top runner was Isaiah Willett who finished 66th overall with a time of 20:58. The team’s top five runners included Jorge Montes (82nd), Efren Villegas (84th), Mason Marshall (91st) and Brady Allen (94th).
Nocona was missing one runner so it was one short of the five runner minimum to compete as a team. The Indians top runner was Omar Salinas who finished 47th with a time of 19:53.
Prairie Valley had one runner compete in the varsity race. Josh Stout finished 13th overall with a time of 18:16.
In the JV boy’s race, Bellevue competed in it. The Eagles were led by River Trail who finished 11th overall with a time of 21:49. The team’s top five runners included Brycen Bancroft (32nd), Cowyn Langford (35th), Aaron Allison (49th) and Hunter Blackburn (52nd).

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.
