FLY EAGLES FLY: No. 1 Barbers Hill wins first-ever UIL Softball State Championship

Joshua Koch
Jun 06, 2021

AUSTIN - They just knew that this was their year.

After COVID-19 took away the 2020 season, Barbers Hill knew they had a legitimate shot at not just getting to Austin and the UIL State Softball Tournament but winning it all.

"This year we knew," Barbers Hill senior Sophia Simpson, the Class 5A State Championship game MVP, said. "It was redemption for all of us with COVID taking away [last season]. We needed it."

Barbers Hill defeated Hallsville on Friday 6-0 to notch its first-ever state tournament win and then on Saturday, it was Simpson's show. The University of Texas-signee put on a clinic from the very circle she will call home for the next four years.

Simpson tossed a complete game, striking out 14 - including the last batter - and holding Aledo to one run en route to a 4-1 victory for Barbers Hill winning the Class 5A State Championship.

"It means everything to this team, this program, this community, this school," Barbers Hill coach Aaron Fuller said. "I think the community and the school could sense it, they could taste it all year long. They knew that this group was a very talented group and had been playing well all year.

"The support we've gotten from the community and the school has been unreal."

THE RANKINGS: CE King; Memorial put H-Town on ALERT

Matt Malatesta
13 Oct, 2025

The Memorial Mustangs are getting interesting

The question around Houston high school football right now: Is CE King the next powerhouse in the region?

The now-No. 3 Panthers made a major statement last Thursday, taking down then-No. 2 Summer Creek in convincing fashion. With that win, CE King has positioned itself as the front-runner in what many consider the toughest district in the state—but a looming matchup with North Shore will ultimately reveal how high this program can climb.
