Lockhart won 20 games and advanced to the UIL 5A Region IV bi-district round during the 2019-2020 season and will remain in the playoff mix again because of multiple playmakers, including district honorable mention Natalia De Los Reyes and fellow contributors Carson Smith and Destiny Arrazola.

Austin Anderson is a motivated bunch after finishing fifth in the competitive UIL 25-6A district during the 2019-2020 campaign and plans to top its 11-win season from a year ago and be a playoff contender with Sydney Grossfeld, Cassie Vargas and Brooklyn Amaro.
