VYPE 2021 Softball Preview:​ Public School Others to Watch

Joshua Koch
Mar 03, 2021

Friendswood Mustangs

Christa Williams enters her seventh season leading the Friendswood Mustangs and they have a solid team back with six starters returning. Caylynn Esparaza (Ole Miss) leads the crew behind the plate, at third base, and at the dish with her bat. Patricia Yarotsky (Sam Houston State) holds it down at shortstop, in the circle, and possesses some "great wheels". Chloe Riassetto (University of Louisiana at Lafayette) has experience, which pairs well with sophomore Janelle Wilson. Lauren Adams (LSU Eunice), Michyla Saenz (Austin College), Maddie Wilson, and Lainie Schaeffer are others to take note of. Building team chemistry will be big for this group in 2021.


Splendora Ladycats

Deanna Eubanks had an ultra-talented squad in 2020, which was 15-1 with state title aspirations before everything ended. The Ladycats say goodbye to eight seniors, including aces Caleigh Millican (Baylor) and Grace Bumpurs (UT-Arlington). There is talent returning, including Leah Hensarling (Tyler JC), Brooklyn Atkins (Cameron University), and Brittan McGown (Ottawa University). Other names to take note of include Honor Knott, Katie Brzowski, and Brooke Martin. This Splendora squad is an ultra-tough district which will make them playoff ready.

Others to Watch: Angleton, Brazoswood, Channelview, Dekaney, Dobie, Elkins, Fulshear, Grand Oaks, Kingwood Park, Magnolia, Memorial, Pearland, Shadow Creek, Summer Creek, Texas City, Tompkins, Waller

Iowa Colony made a major statement at the Class 5A Region III Meet last weekend. The Pioneers’ 4x200 relay team blazed to a 1:22.49 finish—good for the No. 2 time in U.S. history. They also hold the No. 2 time nationally in the 4x100 relay. Leading the charge were Jayden Warren, who captured the 100-meter title, and Derrick Hahn. Ian Hill added to the medal count by winning the 400 meters.

21 Apr, 2025

The Woodlands Highlanders continue to be one of the premier programs in Texas high school football. Coming off an impressive 11-2 season that saw them reach the third round of the playoffs before falling to perennial powerhouse Duncanville, the Highlanders are poised for another strong run.

Leading the way is returning quarterback Jack Daulton, a dynamic playmaker with a strong arm and quick feet. After a standout junior campaign, Daulton has committed to TCU and will be tasked with guiding an offense that features several new faces.
