The basketball season is rocking and rolling along. The VYPE Media team traveled out to the Robert E. Lee High School earlier this year and sat down with the Lady Gander women's basketball teams to talk about the year, the challenges they needed to overcome and goals for the season.

The Glenn Grizzlies’ first season under new head coach Scott Hermes got off to a decent start. The Grizzlies led Stony Point 14-3 when Mother Nature forced their season opener to be suspended two weeks ago.
Last week, however, Glenn gave up a kick-off return for a touchdown on the game’s opening play vs. Davenport, then fumbled the ball at their own 13-yard line on their first possession. The Wolves scored and never looked back as the Grizzlies fell to Davenport 58-20.
Glenn faces perhaps an even tougher opponent when they face the Weiss Wolves from The Pfield in Pflugerville to open District 12-5A-1 play in our VYPE Central Texas Game of the Week.
The Grizzlies (1-1 counting the suspended game) have platooned at quarterback thus far, alternating between senior Gabe Renteria (8-13, 128 Yds., 2 TD) and junior Noah Raymond (13-33, 174 Yds.). Senior Braedyn Vanduren-Fuller (36-112, TD) has been the early workhorse back with Brayden Norman (11-156, 14.2 YPC, 2 TD) leading the receivers.
Glenn’s defense will be tested. Second-year coach Malcolm Hill’s Weiss offense erupted for 42 points on the road against 6A power Round Rock and put up 21 points in last week’s showdown loss to top-ranked Lake Travis. Junior Jaxon Schad (39-58, 439 Yds., 6 TD) leads the Wolves’ potent passing attack while tacking on another 109 yards and a rushing touchdown. Sophomore Trae Collins, meanwhile, has already amassed 210 rushing yards on 31 carries (6.8 YPC) to balance out the Weiss attack.
The Grizzlies are trying to rebuild from several consecutive losing seasons, including last year’s 1-9 campaign. While a road game at Weiss (1-1) is a tough way for Glenn to open district play, it’s a contest that should provide a good early indication of the Grizzlies’ progress under their new coach.
