A Look Back
Last season, the Decatur Lady Eagles posted an incredible 12-0 district record (37-8 overall) to finish at the top of their district. The team dropped only 21 sets against their opponents through the entire season and fought hard in playoffs to secure their second-straight state title.
After working their way through regular season play, the Lady Eagles entered playoffs strong- ready to shut down all of their opponents. Decatur defeated Fort Worth Western Hills, Glen Rose, Krum, Hereford, Argyle, and Bellville en route to the championship match. It was DFW against DFW, though as Decatur faced-off against a tough Celina program. Ultimately, Decatur posted a 3-0 shutout to take home the title.
Looking Ahead
The team is a strong team that can build off of their success each season. With two consecutive championships under their belts, the Lady Eagles are going to strive for a third and fight until they have everything they want. With their preseason schedule set to begin against an incredibly strong Brock team followed by Stephenville, the team is set for a great return.
What To Expect
Fans can expect Decatur to play hard against their opponents and find their way deep in playoffs- if not another return to the state championships. Decatur is a force to be reckoned with and won't slow down in the fall.

Before you know it, the volleyball season will be in full swing... for Dallas-Fort Worth area volleyball fans that means one thing: the Lucas Lovejoy Lady Leopards will be back on the prowl! VYPE DFW takes a look at just what fans can expect from this dynasty as they return in the fall.

A Look Back
Lovejoy is known for having a top-tier volleyball program. Last season, the team posted yet another championship season as they closed out the 2021-22 season with a 3-0 shut-out state title victory over Grapevine. Dropping only 26 sets all season, Lovejoy posted a 42-6 overall record (13-1 in district).
Looking Ahead
Big names have graduated out of Lovejoy's program, but the team has proven that they are capable of shaping the future from an early start. Not only will the incoming freshman class be more than prepared after summer workouts, but the Leopards are returning the likes of Hannah Gonzalez- who can be expected to be a tremendous leader on the court for Lovejoy.
What To Expect
With amazing athletes graduating, this season isn't going to be a cakewalk for Lovejoy, but if anyone doubts the Leopards, they just might regret it. Lovejoy can be expected to use this season to build up their underclassmen during preseason play. Then, on into district, fans can expect the Leopards to have established a strong enough routine to power them through to playoffs.

A Look Back
Melissa football posted an incredible season last year while finishing at the top of their district with an undefeated 6-0 district record. The team even beat out usual district champion Argyle. Despite opening preseason play against tough opponents for tough losses, the Cardinals didn't hesitate to regroup and bounce back- even completing a task that many in the area couldn't do: not only defeat Argyle, but hold the Eagles scoreless.
Through playoffs, Melissa ended the seasons of North Dallas, Midlothian Heritage, and Waco La Vega, before falling to eventual state champions Stephenville in an extremely close, tooth-and-nail 24-21 battle.
Looking Ahead
The team has a lot of strong returners like Nigel Smith, Nathan Adejokun, and Jackson Ford who can be expected to make big names for themselves as they take the field in summer workouts and preseason games. With a team full of strong leadership, it shouldn't come as a surprise when the Cardinals show up strong for their first game of the season.
What To Expect
Another strong playoff push- full stop. The team isn't ready to slow down and no one should expect them to waiver from their goals. Melissa football is on the rise and can be expected to continue to fight for their moment in the spotlight.
