Lila Westphal & Sarah Odell of Tomball Memorial
After defeating fellow state-power Fulshear two weeks ago in a riveting five-set match, the Spartans solidify the top spot in Houston.
However, it wouldn't come as a shock if the two meet each other again in the postseason.
While Grand Oaks, Cy Ranch, The Woodlands, Cinco Ranch, and Ridge Point continue to ball out, teams such as Cy Woods, Dickinson, and Tomball Memorial have quietly risen to the spotlight.
In Class 5A, Friendswood and Lake Creek appear locked in for deep playoff runs. However, West Fork no longer seems to be the underdog, now that they've secured a 3-0 start in district.
Lutheran South Academy still dominates the private school landscape, with St. Agnes and FBCA hot on their heels.
That said, here is our composite break-down of teams battling for supremacy entering October.
