NEXT UP: H-Town's 6A Boys Area Round Outlook

By the time most high school athletes reach their senior year, the game has become more than just a sport -- it's a mirror. For Omotola Oguns, evert rep, rally, and regroup has reflected four seasons of growth, both on the court and off it.

A returning outside hitter for Alief Taylor, Oguns enters the 2025 campaign as a central figure for a Lions team looking to build on last year’s playoff appearance. Taylor finished 15-17 in 2024 and claimed the fourth and final postseason spot in District 20-6A before falling in the first round to Cinco Ranch — a team that went on to reach the Region III Final.
