Fort Stockton’s Ali Jackson and Fabian Perez are headed back to the state cross country meet.

They’ll be joined by Juan Vela after the trio qualified for state at the 4A Region 1 Championship on Tuesday in Lubbock at Mae Simmons Park.

Perez, a senior, improved his finish at regionals from a season ago from 17th place in 2021 to 13th place this past Tuesday. Perez cut his 5K time by four seconds, crossing the finish line in 16 minutes 49 seconds.

Fort Stockton High School’s Blue Wave swim team continues to improve its times as the season moves along. At last Saturday’s Monahans Invitational, the Blue Wave had several swimmers place in the Top 10, individually.

Fort Stockton’s offense is sizzling.

The Panthers' freshman squad scored 50-plus points for the second week in a row on Oct. 20 in a home contest against Mountain View and they did so behind a career-best performance from Jose Galindo.

The freshman found the endzone four times on the ground and the Panthers cruised to their most dominant win of the season in a 52-6 victory.

The Prowlers took down Pecos in five sets on Oct. 14 at home.

The stars shined bright in Pantherland on Friday evening in an offensive showcase between Fort Stockton and rival Monahans.

The Loboes’ cluster glowed just a tad brighter behind quarterback Cheno Navarrette.

The 5-foot-9 elusive signal caller bobbed and weaved his way through the Panthers’ stout run defense throughout the night, finishing the game with 213 yards and three rushing touchdowns on 25 carries in Monahans’ 38=29 victory.
