VYPE DFW February 1 Weekend Recap

We're in that wild part of the year where multiple sports are crossing over. Boys and girls basketball are in the stretch run of their respective regular seasons, softball had its first weekend of games (scrimmages), soccer is rolling right along and baseball is right around the corner.

The winter seasons and early spring seasons bring a bevy of teams, players and games to cover. That was certainly the case this past weekend.

Let's highlight some of the bigger moments of the weekend that was January 29-31.


CHAMPIONS CROWNED

A number of districts crowned their champions in girls hoops action over the weekend.

Sunnyvale topped Farmersville 57-38 to claim the 13-4A title.

The No. 1 team in our girls 4A power rankings surged late to take down Farmersville, thanks for a 22-point effort from Chloe Thomas.

-----

In a 5A Top 10 matchup, No. 3 Lake Dallas took down No. 6 Grapevine, 59-46, to claim the 6-5A crown. Grapevine held a 16-12 lead after one quarter, but Lake Dallas, thanks to a great performance from Mackenzie Buss, outscored Grapevine 20-10 to go into the half 32-26.

Buss dropped 30 points in the win and had the moment of the weekend, as captured by the Denton Record-Chroncile's Reece Waddell.

-----

Midlothian Heritage completely dominated Hillsboro, 67-11, to claim the 11-4A title as Elise Stafford scored 22 in the win.

-----

5A No. 1 Mansfield Legacy earned its first-ever district title with a 52-34 win over Burleson to outright win the 8-5A Division I crown.

BIG BOYS' SHOWDOWNS

In a 5A Boys Top 5 matchup in Mansfield, No. 4 Timberview outlasted No. 2 Summit 66-57 as both teams now sit atop the 8-5A district standings at 9-1 in district play.

Timberview led for the majority of the game, taking a 22-16 lead after the first quarter, maintaining that lead after the second and third quarters and then pulling away in the fourth.

-----

In another 5A Top 10 matchup in which the higher-ranked team fell, No. 7 Frisco Heritage took down No. 1 Frisco Wakeland 52-49. Wakeland saw its six-game win streak end while Heritage extended its win streak to 8.

-----

Fresh off entering the 6A Top 10 Power Rankings, No. 10 Lake Highlands shrugged off a big challenge from Richardson Pearce, 54-48 to run its win streak to 5 straight games. Noah McDavid scored 23 to help Lake Highlands fend off Pearce's comeback bid.

-----

Don't look now, but Prosper Rock Hill - first-year varsity program - is an impressive 15-4 after its 57-56 win over The Colony on Friday. Rock Hill has won four straight and six of its last seven. Rock Hill is tied with McKinney North at 9-2 for second in 10-5A.

Rock Hill has a big matchup against Lovejoy this week for a shot at being atop the district standings.

DINGERS FOR A CAUSE

Over the weekend in Melissa, a number of area softball players participated in the Texas High School Kickoff Home Run Derby benefiting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Dee McClarity, an All-American out of Garland Sachse, took home the crown with 56 home runs in 5 rounds. The Star-Telegram's Brian Gosset interviewed McClarity after the event.

Full interview with home run derby champ SACHSE'S @DeeMcClarity_8 (Texas Tech commit). 15 in the championship round, 56 dingers in 5 rounds. 28 in round 2!! 👀 💪 #WreckEm @SHS_Mustangs @gisdnews pic.twitter.com/snuzqUraQU

The Richardson Lady Eagles have been giving it their all this season as they returned to the field after a year away from competition. Sitting in the number 3 spot in their district, the Lady Eagles have fought to continue to show their competitors what they're about. A beneficial member to their team has been the class of 2023's Lana Danielson- an uncommitted athlete who excels in the outfield, at first base, in the circle, and at the plate. VYPE DFW caught up with Danielson who was selected as the VYPE DFW softball recruit of the week.
