BRYSON – Perrin Coach Eddie Fortenberry, whose Lady Pirates had won just one game before Friday’s district matchup here, was just hoping to see his squad put together a complete game.

He saw quite a bit more.

With Bryson out two starters due to injuries suffered the game before in Throckmorton, Perrin took control early leading 18-2 after one and coasted to a 46-26 win at Cowboy Gym.

Fortenberry said that his squad played very smart offensively and was patient, particularly in the early going when Perrin took control for good.

BRYSON – With medical conditions causing sickness around sports teams, even if it’s not COVID, there has been little opportunity for teams to practice and play in a normal setting.

The top sports story of the year (nearly) gone by was the COVID virus which knocked out the Spring Sports season for the most part and had people thinking throughout the summer whether or not we would have a Fall sports season.
