THEY'RE BACK!

As it was hopefully anticipated prior to the first pitch being thrown this Spring season, the Kingwood Mustangs returned to the UIL State Tournament and took that a step further with their dominant series sweep against Dripping Springs last week.

Now, Kingwood turns its attention towards Forney this Saturday (1:00 PM), with the potential to claim the program's first-ever title.

VYPE's Matthew Ogle spoke with Kingwood HC and H-Town softball legend, Christa Williams-Yates, detailing the team's journey back to Austin, and what they have come to "PROVE".
