Alpine cross country took advantage of its home course at the Big Bend Mountain Ramble, with the Lady Bucks winning both the varsity and JV girls team championships at Kokernot Park.

Alpine volleyball turns its attention to district play this week, with the Lady Bucks opening on the road against Presidio at noon Saturday. Alpine was scheduled to face Denver City and Lovington on Tuesday in its final matches before district play.

Alpine volleyball has three matches remaining before district play after the Lady Bucks went 0-3 during a difficult week that included matches against Compass Academy, Fort Stockton and Fort Davis. The Lady Bucks opened the week by hosting a round robin against Compass Academy and Fort Stockton.

The Alpine Fightin’ Bucks bounced back from a difficult season opener with a 19-16 win over 4A Fabens on Friday night, improving to 1-1 behind a much stronger performance on both sides of the football.

Alpine’s high school girls won the team championship Saturday at the Oasis of West Texas Run in Balmorhea, leading a strong meet for the Alpine crosscountry program.

Alpine’s annual Big Bend Mountain Ramble will have a new name when the crosscountry meet returns to Kokernot Park on Saturday.
