Lake Creek Lions
13. Lake Creek Lions (5A)
The Lake Creek Lions roared to the Regional Semifinals in 2025, finishing 20-14-1 overall and as District 17-5A co-Champions. Jeremy Schramm enters his seventh season of leading Lake Creek (146 career coaching wins), and returns eight starters to the dugout, including reigning District 17-5A Newcomer of the Year Kaleb Foster.
All-State pitcher Caden Whitworth (National Park College-commit), Army-commit Reed Newkirk and first-team, all-district pick Jaxon Schramm are also set to return. Other key returners include Luke Logeman (LSU Eunice-commit; honorable mention, all-district)), Peyton Trummell (LSU Eunice-commit; second-team, all-district), Gavin Nabors (Angelina College-commit), Colin Wiederhold (LeTourneau University-commit), Jackson Marshall (UNC Asheville-commit), Aiden Leitz (Ranger College-commit) and Harper Heathcock.
The key to success for Schramm’s Lions will rely on the senior leadership as this team will play by the team motto “Compete” in 2026.
