No. 1 -- SUMMER CREEK BULLDOGS
Summer Creek etched their names into history last winter, erasing an 18-point deficit in the Class 6A-D1 State Championship to stun Cedar Hill, 52–49, and capture the school’s first-ever state title.
In her debut, head coach Kiara Marshall took the Texas basketball world by storm — leading a fearless, fast-paced team that refused to fold when the chips were down.
Now, with nearly every key piece returning, the Bulldogs have their sights set on something even bigger: a repeat.
It all starts with Kennedy Simpson (Tulane-signee), the reigning State MVP, who scored 21 points in the title game and continues to set the tone on both ends of the floor.
Supporting her is a deep and talented cast that includes Addison Martin (Jr. G), Erin Newsom (Jr. F), Kay’Len Alexander (Jr. F), and Ty’Asia Young (So. G) — all proven winners who know what it takes to climb the mountain.
“What I love about this program is that it’s about the work,” said Coach Marshall. “I know it sounds like coach-speak, but we just focus on ourselves and don’t pay attention to the noise. We’re just trying to get better every day — and our kids are bought into that.”
That no-nonsense approach might sound simple, but it’s the formula that built a champion —and could very well deliver them to a repeat.
