The Fort Stockton High School Blue Wave swim team competed in the Monahans Invitational on Oct. 28, and showed grit and determination to work on their times and events placing fourth overall with 262 points out of 10 teams.

For the first time since 2016, the Fort Stockton Prowler Volleyball is headed to the post season. The Prowlers defeated the Seminole Maidens 25-20, 25-23, and 25-9 on Saturday to clinch a playoff berth.

Following last week’s loss in Monahans, the Fort Stockton Panthers bounced back with a 38-21 victory over the visiting Mountain View Lobos this past Friday. “I really liked the response they had from the loss last week following with a good week at practice,” said head coach Jeremy Hickman.

Last week the District 2-4A team tennis coaches met for their superlatives and the Fort Stockton Panther tennis team was able to walk away with several awards to solidify the great season they had. Awards are listed below:

Buena Vista Running Back Jackie Jurado plows through the line for a touchdown to put the Longhorns ahead 46-0 and end the game early against Fort Davis, last Friday night in Imperial.

Ali Jackson punched a return ticket back to the state cross country meet in Round Rock, on Nov. 3-4. Jackson finished seventh out of 171 other high school girls throughout Region 1. Her12:36.72timeinthetwomile run was filled with hills and some wet conditions at Mae Simmons Park in Lubbock.

The Prowler Volleyball program loaded up the brooms and took them to Pecos on Saturday. Each of the Prowler teams were victorious and Senior Aryanna Gonzalez added to the festivities.

Arguably two best teams in District 2-4A squared off last Friday, and for two quarters the teams exchanged blows and the outcome was very much in doubt.

The Panther and Prowler cross country teams returned to Andrews for the district 3-4A district meet on Saturday. This meet determines not only the district champions, but which high school runners advance to regional competition in Lubbock.
