| JHS Golf | The Owls Golf Team held off a charge from Centennial Thursday during the 2nd round of 8-4A district golf tournament held at Squaw Valley golf course. The Joshua Boys were in 2nd place behind Cleburne with a 6 stroke lead over Burleson Centennial after the first day with a 313 team total. After the conclusion of the second round on Thursday the Owls held a 4 stroke lead which was good enough to earn them a birth into the regional golf tournament held in Abilene on April 14th and 15th. Conner Ratliff led the Owls with a 73-78 and received 1st team all district honors. Austin Ratliff shot 78-79 and received 2nd team all district honors. Other Owls were Dustin Dingler 80-82, Tyler VanderWall 82-80 and Colton Spakes 92-89. Boys: 2nd Place
As the Joshua Boys held off Centennial the Joshua Girls were in the catch up Mode. After the first day of district the Lady Owls were 12 strokes out of 2nd place and since only the top 2 teams advance they knew they had to step up their game. Shooting 33 strokes better as a team the 2nd day they knew it would come down to the wire. “I told them every stroke would count so they needed to play their best. I am so proud of their effort today” Coach Gary Wright. But once the final scores were tallied it was not enough. The Lady Owls missed going to regional by 2 strokes. “It was heart breaking for the team. We fought so hard the second day but just came up a little short”. Bryle Alcorn tied for second place medalist but lost in a playoff. Bryle advances as a medalist to regional in Abilene April 16th and 17th. Bryle had an 85-73.

The Joshua Athletics Program is proud to have had Mackenzie Anderson as an exemplary member and a shining example to the community of what hard work and belief can accomplish. She has been a leader since the first time she stepped on the field wearing an Owl uniform. We couldn’t be more excited for her to start the next stage of her life and for soccer to continue to be a part of it. Coach Phillip Bohn recruited Mackenzie to Central Baptist College in Arkansas for her fierce goalkeeping abilities. She will receive a $5000 Athletic Scholarship and an Academic Scholarship that is still to be determined. We wish you luck and know you’ll accomplish great things, Mackenzie Anderson. |

LMS Owls Beat Granbury Acton in Finale to Earn Quad County Honors
On Tuesday, November 6, 2013, the Loflin Owls played Granbury Acton and won two of their three games to earn post season honors.
The C Team won their game in usual fashion by a score of 18-0. The win solidified the Owls as undefeated district champions at 4-0-1 and an overall record of 6-1-1. Their only loss came at the hands of powerhouse Aledo.
The championship game was all Owls as they were able to keep Acton to two earned first downs. Strong defensive play by Dusty Anglin and John Lindley, supported by a host of others, was the key to the night’s success.
The B Team was not as fortunate as they fell to the Pirates 8-6. The loss dropped the Owls to a 3-2 record for district with a 5-3 overall record. Because of the head to head tie breaker with Granbury, the Owls slipped to third place; however, they did earn the Quad County bronze medals and are very excited about the future.
Malaki Mendoza, Colton Fugit, and Simon Askins were key factors defensively with Mendoza and quarterback, Caleb Estes, aiding to the offensive success of the Owls.
The night finished out with a bang as the A Team was not going to be denied the district honors of the Runner-Up position. The fireworks started when Hayden Chittum to the first play of the game 75 yards from the line of scrimmage for a touchdown. Jacob Kastansea added the two pint conversion and the Owls were up 8-0 and only 25 seconds had ticked off the clock. After a stalled drive by the Pirates and another by the Owls, Granbury marched the field to tie the game 8-8 with a pass on third down.
The next series picked up where the first series left off when Will Bucholz took a 37 yard screen pass to the end zone and that score remained the same until half time.
The Owls kicked off the second half and a Pirate miscue was recovered and a few plays later Landon McCoy put the Owls up 24-8; however, the Pirates came right back with a score of their own and the 24-16 tally remained unchanged until 1:11 left in the game. At that point, Granbury was driving to tie the score and an open field touchdown was interrupted by Owls safety Connery Peters as he stripped the Granbury runner of the ball on the Owls’ 5 yard line. The very next play Owl running back, Tyger Brigmond took the ball 95 yards to seal the fate of the Pirates and sending the Owls into offseason as Quad County District Runner-Up with a 3-2 district record and a 4-4 overall record.
For the season, Loflin Middle School was 15-8-1 as an 8th grade program and all three teams earned post season honors. Both the B and C Teams outscored their opponents ten and fifteen points respectively and the A Team fourteen points.
This was a very successful season in terms of changing the direction of the program and it is exciting to as the kids are already talking about next year and not simply being satisfied with their current success by wanting to get better.
