RINGING THE BELL FOR STATE

Hamilton’s Lady Bulldogs posted a 7-1 record in district to claim a share of the District 11-2A title with Hico and wasted no time last week in nabbing both bi-district and area championships. On Tuesday, the Lady Dogs traveled to Clyde and bounced Colorado City from the first round of the playoffs in three commanding sets by scores of 2511, 25-20 and 25-19.

Depending on playoff volleyball, the Lady Bulldogs will possibly tip off their 2024-25 basketball campaign on Tuesday of next week with a home opener versus Millsap. If not, the Chris Arledge led Lady Dogs will open the season by hosting Hamilton Hoopfest on Thursday, Nov. 21, through Saturday, Nov. 23.
