This past week the George Ranch Longhorns softball team took on the Elkins Knights in a tough District Game.
VYPE caught the highlights of the game below!

Meanwhile, Tomball (30-7) turned up the heat in the second round of district play, defeating Klein Oak once again while avenging earlier losses to Tomball Memorial, Magnolia, and Klein Cain to reclaim the District 15-6A title. The Lady Coogs consequently surge back into the Top 3, carrying renewed momentum and aspirations of another trip to State.
In the 5A landscape, Lake Creek (37-10) presents a particularly compelling storyline, having captured a share of the District 17-5A title despite enduring one of the area's toughest district slates. By splitting their season series with A&M Consolidated and College Station while sweeping Montgomery, the Lady Lions secured their first district championship since 2021 — and their first under head coach Kayli Kane.
Friendswood, Kempner, and West Fork also finished district play unbeaten, while Bellville and Needville set the pace in 4A.
The rankings are finalized. Now comes the real test.
