Judson has followed a similar path, using depth and tempo to maintain momentum through league action, while Steele and Clemens continue to track closely behind, each showing the balance and physicality needed to contend over the long haul. Suffice it to say that the District 29-6A race will be one worth monitoring.
Brandeis has also positioned itself firmly in the conversation, racing through district play and proving capable of controlling games on both ends of the floor.
Beyond the top tier, the middle of the rankings remains fluid. Warren has quietly put together a strong district start, showing resilience after a challenging non-district slate and emerging as a team that could complicate postseason draws.
In 5A, the race has been just as compelling. Veterans Memorial has leaned on experience and execution to navigate a demanding district schedule, while New Braunfels has paired scoring depth with consistency to stay near the top of the standings. Pieper has shown flashes of its upside in league play, and Alamo Heights continues to battle through a crowded district, with results that suggest the Mules remain a factor as the season progresses.
