Moran teams to host Paint Creek Friday

By Kathy Thomson

Moran’s high school teams fell in Bryson on Tuesday, Nov. 26.

The Bryson Cowgirls handed the Lady Bulldogs a 39-15 loss.

“We were short handed, due to injuries and players being out for Thanksgiving,” said coach John Hughes. “The girls played hard and gave everything they had tonight, so I’m extremely proud of them. They continue to grow and improve with each game.” 

Freshmen Chloe Hendricks and Emily Murk filled in for missing players. 

Scoring for Moran were sophomore Johnnie Hise 12, and senior November Meredith 3.

“All in all, I have been pleased with the work the young ladies have been putting in,” said Hughes. “The record may not show it, but they continue to improve every day, even though most of them have missed a couple of years of basketball due to low numbers.”

The Bulldogs, with only six men on the roster, lost to the Cowboys 25-54. 

Details were not available as of press time on Tuesday.

The varsity teams were in Throckmorton on Tuesday, Dec. 3, with a 6:00 p.m. tip off for the girls, followed by the boys game.

Details were not available at press time and will be reported next week.
