In the 6A ranks, balance and depth headline the conversation.
District 28-6A, in particular, is shaping up as a week-to-week grind. Brennan (22-4) currently holds the inside track after a pivotal win over Sotomayor (22-4), though both teams appear well-equipped for a prolonged run. Judson (22-5) and Johnson (24-3) have been equally steady elsewhere, pairing strong records with the kind of defensive discipline that tends to translate in late February.
Meanwhile, squads like Warren, Harlan, Steele, and O’Connor continue to loom as dangerous variables capable of reshuffling the standings on any given night.
Class 5A offers no shortage of intrigue either. MacArthur and McCollum have surged through district play, while Boerne remains firmly in the mix behind a resilient start that suggests its ceiling has yet to be reached.
With the postseason picture still in flux, these rankings serve less as a final verdict and more as a temperature check. The second half of district play figures to bring clarity — and plenty of movement — before the real stakes arrive.
