SIXTH SENSE: Five Straight District Crowns Have No. 6 Klein Collins Eyeing Another
No. 6 — Klein Collins Tigers
Five years. Five gold balls. Coach Tatiana Lee and the Klein Collins Tigers have set the standard in Klein ISD, compiling a remarkable 67-4 record over the last five seasons while claiming a district championship each year.
Now, the Tigers have their sights set on a sixth straight title, but sustaining that level of excellence demands more than talent — it takes commitment. Sam Houston State commit A’Niyah Harmon headlines the returning talent after earning District MVP honors a year ago. Fellow seniors Ma’Ryann Jacobs and Marvinisah Norman round out a veteran core poised to lead the charge.
The next wave is equally intriguing. Sophomores Raven Garner, a 5-foot-10 standout, and Kendall Penright figure to assume expanded roles following the departure of leading scorer Hailey Neal, who is now at Houston Christian.
“Talent may get us started, but commitment will determine how far we go,” Lee said. “And we are committed.”
While the Tigers have plenty of experience, Lee is emphasizing the importance of embracing the moment rather than looking too far ahead. Her message is simple: “Be where our feet are planted.”
For Klein Collins, the pursuit of another gold ball starts with making every moment count.
