Barbers Hill has State Expectations.
By Jamey Wright
But who’s coming for them?
Region III — Class 6A Division I
Round 2 brings a heavyweight clash between Cypress Creek Cougars and Seven Lakes Spartans — two tradition-rich programs enjoying bounce-back seasons. Cy Creek leans on Alissa Bryant, Aubrey Hampton, Kaycie Hanks and Mariyah Dickson. The Cougars know the stage — Rori Harmon once carried them to a State Final appearance.
Seven Lakes counters with Houston commit Madison Carlton, pouring in 20 points per game, alongside Willtrace Ngoh. Carlton’s sister, Justice Carlton — a McDonald’s All-American — now stars for the Texas Longhorns women's basketball.
Waiting in the bottom half are the Dawson Eagles, sitting at 33-3 behind Kendall Ford, Journey Lovett and Faith Etienne. Consider this your warning: do not sleep on Dawson.
Summer Creek’s path out of Region III is anything but easy.
Region II — Class 6A Division I
Klein Collins Tigers could be on a collision course with powerhouse Duncanville Panthers. Meanwhile, Cypress Lakes Spartans and Makennah Alexis square off with Conroe Tigers before a likely Dallas-area showdown.
Klein Collins remains Houston’s strongest bet to escape the region.
Class 6A Region III — Division II
This bracket is a bloodbath.
Hightower Hurricanes are loaded and balanced, but the road is brutal. After knocking off Manvel Mavericks, they’re staring at CE King Panthers with Memorial Mustangs or Katy Jordan Warriors looming.
Lurking is Shadow Creek Sharks, powered by Courtland Cloud, Kurynn McNeill and Da’Niyah Lewis — a trio capable of taking over games. Katy Taylor Mustangs and Casey Scherperell could shake things up on the bottom half.
In Region II, Cypress Springs Panthers — led by freshman Makenzie Jackson alongside Tamiah Harrison and Deliyah El Amin — are back in the mix. The Grand Oaks Grizzlies are rolling at 25-5, fueled by Jordan Daigle, Hannah Reynolds and Avery Campbell.
But the region’s true measuring stick remains Lancaster Tigers. They are dangerous.
Class 5A Region III Division I
The Porter Spartans and La Porte Bulldogs carry the Greater Houston banner on the bottom side. The upstart Spring Woods Tigers sit at 24-4 behind Anjalena Salazar, one of the state’s elite scorers at 22 points per game. Don’t overlook Ball Tornadoes either — they could make noise.
Class 5A Region III Division II
Last year belonged to the Barbers Hill Eagles. They’re again 33-3 but face a dangerous Huntsville Hornets squad in the Area Round. Iowa Colony Pioneers also loom as contenders after battling through a tough district.
