Football camp ends ‘great’ run

Article Image Alt Text

A spike in numbers and enthusiasm met in near-perfect confluence this week to result in one of the best Tribe Football Camps ever.

More than 100 youngsters from 6-14 took part in the Monday-Thursday camp in the Seminole High School fieldhouse and on the turf at Wigwam Stadium.

For new Indian head coach Ty Palmer, the camp was his first at the helm and arguably the best during his six years stint in Seminole.

Despite some rosters departures, the Seminole Indian fall tennis team is guardedly optimistic as preseason practice commenced this week.

Tribe netters began preparations for the 2019 season when two-a-day practices opened Monday at Seminole High School.

“Even early on, you can definitely tell the girls side will be king,” Tribe coach Kevin Gersbach said during a break between Thursday’s workouts. “Their work over the summer is already showing.

“The boys will have to work more for success, but they have the talent to do well. It could be a good year.”

Tribe near giddy for start of practice

To talk with new Seminole Indian head football Ty Palmer about Monday’s start of preseason practice gives one the feeling of chatting with a 6-year-old on Christmas Eve. After five years as an assistant, Palmer will begin his first season as a head coach when the Indians take the field to start the 2019 preseason. Between that and how the Tribe might be shaping up for the new season, come Sunday night, Palmer – like that proverbial 6-year-old – will probably not get much sleep. “Things are looking great as we prepare to get started Monday,” he said.

The win advanced Seminole into the winner’s bracket, where it will take on Bryan (Ark.) after press time Friday.

AMARILLO – Proving golf to be the game of inches that it ultimately is, Seminole’s Cason Johnson survived a playoff miscue to complete a second-day rally Tuesday for the Ryan Palmer Foundation Classic Medalist championship.

The 36-hole event was played July 8-9 on the 6,538-yard, par 71 course at Tascosa Golf Club.

A UIL Class 4A state championship qualifier this season, Johnson overcame a sluggish first round to storm back and end up tied with Seth Giesbrecht, also from Seminole, at 5-over par 147.
