With such a comfortable margin over City View on Tuesday, it allowed Bowie High School head baseball coach Ryan Rogers the chance to use most of his team.
Lawson Mickler spelled Chandler Dean as the typical Tuesday starting pitcher.
Coby Bentley pitched the sixth and seventh innings, getting much-needed work.
And Kevin Stallcup earned his first-ever varsity base hit, driving home two runs in the top of the seventh.
Even though Bowie was the visitor in its own park, the Jackrabbits topped City View 17-0 in this District 3A-9 contest.
Bowie, now ranked fourth in Conference 3A according to the latest Texas High School Baseball Coaches Association poll, improved to 19-1-2, 9-0. The Jackrabbits continued district play on Friday against Paradise.
“We were able to get Lawson and Coby on the mound,” Rogers said. “I’m happy about the way the guys played. Some of the guys on the bench got a shot to contribute, and Kevin is a perfect example of that. He was able to come in and get his first hit and two RBIs. Good for him.”
Rogers said Mickler and Bentley pitched on Tuesday because the team needs to start thinking long-term into the playoffs.
“We wanted to give Chandler and Cooper some extra rest,” Rogers said.
Rogers said he was pleased with how the bats came alive, especially during the seventh inning when the Jackrabbits scored nine times. Read more, and see the box score, in the weekend 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.
