Hello Sports Fans. Friends, Romans, Football Fans, lend me your beers . . . cause we’re celebrating another week of red-hot, inyour- face, Texas-hold-ons, kick-tail pigskin prognosticatin’!
This week, the spotlight is on Cameron as they prepare to host the Lorena Leopards in an exciting evening of football action featuring both Middle School and Varsity matchups. Fans are reminded that all ticket sales will be conducted online only, with no cash accepted at the gate.
It’s Week 4 already!? Hey, it goes by fast once the season gets started, and so far, it hasn’t disappointed. Several of our coverage area teams are sitting pretty good in the non-district standings, and this week a few will finish up that portion of their schedule as district will be starting very, very soon. Last week, Cameron Yoe picked up their first win of the season in overtime against the Maypearl Panthers. Rosebud-Lott remains unbeaten after their win at home over the Dawson Bulldogs. Thorndale moved to 2-1 on the season with their blowout win over the Bartlett Bulldogs, and the Buckholts Badgers picked up a huge win over Mullin to also move to 2-1 on the year. Chilton improved to 30, shutting out Marlin – still looking for their first win – and have not been scored on the past two games. Milano returns to action this week and hope to see their first win on the season. Let’s see who will be playing who, and where!
Cameron Yoe team tennis traveled to Burnet High School last Wednesday for their district match against the Bulldogs. The Yoe team had good performances in boys doubles, winning two of three, and the Yoe girls went 3-0 in doubles play. The girls swept all of their singles matches, going 6-0, led by Savannah Dorner, who defeated Burnet’s Burns, 8-1; Lorelai Warner beat Burnet’s Halford, 6-0, 6-3; and Brianna Mendoza beat Burnet’s Denton in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3.
