MJH Volleyball
Last weekend the 8th grade Lady Bear Volleyball B team competed in our home round robin.  The ladies had a successful weekend and dominated play against Willow Wood JH and New Caney Middle School.  The ladies fought hard against McCullough but fell short.  Great job on a 2nd place finish and good luck this Thursday against Tomball Junior High!

The 8th grade lady bears played Tomball last night. Both teams went to 3 games, but in the end both teams fell short. The girls fought hard and played their hearts out. When we play them again we will know how to stop them. Way to fight Lady Bears!!!

MJH FOOTBALL

The 8th grade Purple and Gold teams went head to head last night at Junior Bear Stadium.  In the B team game, Quarterback Aiden Lynch scored the lone touchdown for the Purple team and then passed to Damien Davenport for the 1 point conversion.  Jacob Mead connected with Adam Funderburg three times for long touchdowns and Marco Ramirez added a rushing touchdown and three P.A.T.'s to round out the scoring for the Gold.  The final score was 30-7.

The A teams engaged in a defensive battle with the only touchdown coming from a Bailey Schneider pass to fullback, Luke Loera, for the Purple team.  Zack Schubert added a P.A.T. to make the final score 8-0 over the Gold.

The Montgomery Bears 7^th grade Purple and Gold teams faced off against each other on Monday, for their first district game of the year.  The B teams played hard but the gold team ultimately prevailed winning 6 to 0.  The A teams had an exciting game all the way through to the last play.  When the clock ran out both teams had tied each other 12 to 12.  Good job, keep working hard and good luck next week.

Congratulations to all the teams from all the coaches.

MJH Football 7th Grade

On Monday, 9/15, the Montgomery Bears 7th grade Purple and Gold football teams combined, hosted the Patriots from Bammel Middle School.  The Bears fought hard, but Bammel was just too much to handle in the long run.  This Monday, 9/22 the Purple and Gold teams will face off against each other in their first district game at 5pm and 630pm.  Come out and support your Bears and keep working hard.

MJH Football 8th Grade

On Tuesday, 9/16, the Montgomery Bears 8th grade purple and gold teams traveled to Spring to battle the Bammel Patriots.  The B teams got off to an amazing start as the Gold O-Line opened an alley for running back Marco Ramierez who ran away from everybody for a touchdown on the first play from scrimmage.  Terrance Allen later rushed for two touchdowns for the purple team and kicker Gerardo Herrara knocked in a PAT to cap off the scoring for the Bears.  The highlight of the game took place on a pivotal 4th down with 15 yards to go and quarterback Josh White connected with full back Colton Sanchez on an underhand shuffle pass to pick up the first down and all the momentum.  Both defenses held tough as the Bears came away with the victory 20-7.

The A teams held off a very athletic offense in a back and forth contest to come away with a 28-20 win over the Patriots.  Running backs Conner Wilson and Tauren Bradley each rushed for two touchdowns behind stellar O-Line blocking and Zack Schubert kicked in two PAT's.  The defense overcame some obstacles but was able to force 4 turnovers as Mason Hoke, Landon Nelson, Tauren Bradley each had a fumble recovery and Conner Wilson intercepted a Bammel pass. 

This Tuesday, 9/23, Purple and Gold teams will face off against each other in their first district games at 5pm and 630pm.
