Pasadena Memorial's star Center, Robert Miller
Orlando Horton--Clear Falls
Bradley Collier (VYPE)
In his senior debut, Horton flexed by scoring 40 points and racking up 11 assists. He has proven to be one of the best available unsigned seniors in the Greater Houston area. If Horton maintains this level of consistent play, he will be in the conversation as one of the area's top collegiate acquisitions.
Cypress Creek's Corey Hadnot

Hadnot executed a game of separation in the RCS Season Opener. He efficiently scored at will and demonstrated why he is a DI player. The recent Purdue--Fort Wayne commit showed no hesitation in his game, as Hadnot’s mid-range jump shot looked elite Saturday afternoon in which he led all scorers with 33 points.
College Park's Xander Singh

In College Park’s first tournament of the season, Singh was named MVP of the Alamo City Hoops Classic. Leading the Cavaliers to a 4-0 record to start the season, this crafty forward is averaging just over 13 points per game, and is set to usher his team to a postseason berth.
Pasadena Memorial's Robert Miller

Miller demonstrated a skillful display of athleticism in game one of the season, with several college coaches in attendance, by finishing the contest with 27 points, 8 rebounds and 5 blocks versus The Woodlands.
The towering Miller was able to lead his team to victory by contesting everything at the rim and making his presence known on both ends of the floor, which is actually what Pasadena Memorial expects out of the young star. When it's all said and done, Miller will be one of the top recruits in the nation.

Langham Creek’s Coach Armando Sedeño has been the coach for the school for over 30 years and impressively led the Lobos to the State Semifinals in 2016.
During that time span, he has become the winningest coach in Cy-Fair ISD history, with over 600 victories (628 and still active) to his name. He’s been nationally ranked in the top 10 and ranked in the top 20 six times while coaching over 150 players to sign/play at the next level.
Suffice it to say, Sedeño, the 2015 Ray Knoblauch Coaching Award Recipient is a worthy inclusion in the HBCA.

Katy’s recently-retired coach Tom McPherson spent 45 years coaching, the last 34 with Katy High School.
With 891 career wins (the most in 6A Texas HS Baseball), two state tournament appearances and district championships ranging in the double-digits, this legendary figure is a must in the Hall of Fame.

Bellaire’s Rocky Manuel retired after 35 years of coaching, spending the last 25 of them at Bellaire. He enjoyed a phenomenal career, in which he recorded 998 wins, along with two State Championships (1994, 1999) and two State tournament appearances.
Along with those appearances, Manuel reached the postseason 28 times and was named National Coach of the Year by USA Today in 1994 -- when the Bellaire team was recognized as National Champions.
