Red River Bass Club opens year
The 2025 Texas High School Bass Association started for the Red River HS Bass Club on Lake Lewisville Saturday, September 20th. Seven teams form our RRHSBC showed up and were part of 143 teams who had entered for the day to see who could come out with the most weight in bass.
The day starts for these teams before sunrise, and they must stop fishing at 3 p.m. Unfortunately, one of the teams had some bad luck and didn’t finish the day due to a sports injury the week before. Out of the remaining teams we were able to place 11th as a club for a total weight of 16.08 pounds. Volunteer boat captains and parents along with the sponsors have made this program successful and keeps the youth on the water and competing. 17.90 pounds won the day for a team from Highland Park.
Red River results are as follows. Bryce DeMore/Ranger Carle and boat captain Seth Barnes led the team to 30th place with 6.54 pounds. Next was the team of Lane Smith/Carson Caudle and boat captain Abel Segura with a 31st place finish and 6.49 pounds. Hunter Moss/Phillip Prespentt with boat captain David Moss settled with 3.05 pounds and 59th place. Tayt Lawrence/Colten Anglin with boat captain Bradley Lawrence found 71st place with 2.38 pounds. Cooper Johnson/Colt Henry with boat captain Brian Johnson weighed 1.72 pounds for 77th place. Walker Strahan/Bryce Ramsey and Ollie Haynie/Jaxon Rosenau were unable to find the right sized fish to weigh and even broke several off in a great effort to make it to weigh-in.

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.
