THE LAST DANCE: UIL Basketball 6A-D2 State Final Preview -- Katy Jordan vs. Denton Guyer
After a season filled with drama and intrigue, Texas high school basketball reaches its pinnacle as the UIL state championships take center stage in San Antonio.
With the new playoff structure splitting the 6A bracket into divisions, more teams now have a shot at bringing home gold.
In the 6A-Division II race, both Katy Jordan and Denton Guyer are making history, each reaching the state final for the first time.
Despite being founded just four years ago, Jordan (35-3) has quickly cemented itself as a title contender, a testament to both the program's talent and the leadership of Coach Charlie Jones.
Senior point guard Jaden Holt has been a key catalyst, contributing in all phases—scoring (15 PPG), playmaking (3 APG), and defense (40 steals in 2024).
The Warriors’ strength, however, lies in their depth.
Seniors Elijah Black (12 PPG, 3 APG, 1 SPG), Rayan Fadika (10 PPG, 7 RPG, 2 APG), Jude Oluokun (7 PPG, 6 RPG, 1 APG), and junior Keegan Moorehead (6 PPG, 3 RPG) help form one of the most balanced rotations in Texas.
On the other side, Denton Guyer (33-7) enters the final as the No. 4-ranked team in the state (MaxPreps).
After a tight 51-48 win over Dallas Jesuit in the area round, the Wildcats have dominated their path to the championship, cruising past Crowley (72-54), Frenship (64-43), and College Park (68-44).
Under Coach Grant Long, they aim to cap off the program’s most successful season since its founding in 2005.
One of the most highly anticipated games of the year tips off Saturday at 5:00 PM in the historic Alamodome. A new champion will be crowned—stay tuned for full coverage.

EXPERIENCE PAYS: No. 8 Katy Jordan retains all its stars to propel them to postseason
8 -- KATY JORDAN WARRIORS
With 11 seniors returning off of a Regional Semifinal team a year ago, the Jordan Warriors are in position to make history.
“We did the math,” coach Charlie Jones said. “We return 97-percent of our scoring and 95-percent of our minutes played from last year. We are going to take advantage of our experience. I’ve preached to them to take ownership of this team... I’m just trying to stay out of the way.”
Four-year starter Jaden Holt and three-year starter Elijah Black will lead the way for the Warriors along with Rayan Fakika. Jude and Jacob Oluokun will man the paint along with Landon Kjar.
Thesurprise on this year’s team? Look out from freshman Marwane Fadika, who will help out in the back-court.
After losing 39-38 in the playoffs to Bellaire, Jordan is hungry to go further. With the depth and experience, they should.
