BARBERS HILL EAGLES
Evoking shades of the program’s glory days, Barbers Hill made its second straight trip to the UIL State Tournament on Tuesday, outlasting Cedar Park 34–31. In doing so, the Lady Eagles improved to 37–3 on the year and, more importantly, advanced to the title game for the first time since their championship run in 1997. Seventh-year head coach Bryan Harris and company now set their sights on bringing home state banner No. 4 for The Hill, imbued with their “Chasing Greatness” mantra.
Standout Brooklynn Roberson (Jr. PG) remains the catalyst for the Eagles, orchestrating the offense while doubling as perhaps the squad’s most gifted shooter. Fellow team captains Jayci Lackey (Jr. G) and MacKenzie Thornhill (Sr. SF) provide both infectious composure and a scoring touch, alongside senior small forward Autumn Lecompte.
The will to win is already ingrained in Barbers Hill’s DNA. Now, all that’s left is execution.

ARGYLE EAGLES
From one traditional Texas superpower to another, Argyle (33–5) has reached the State Final Four an impressive 11 times dating back to 2006. The latest run began with a decisive 52–41 victory over Frisco Memorial earlier this week, giving head coach Chance Westmoreland and the Eagles a chance to claim the program’s seventh title — and first since 2019, when Argyle won five consecutive championships in Class 4A.
An unselfish approach to the offense has produced a roster full of players capable of delivering when the stakes are highest. Still, juniors Emma King and Wrigley Green have provided the most consistent scoring punch throughout the winter, with Kensley Vest (Jr. G), Landry Murphy (Jr. F), and senior Blair Mosley rounding out an exceptionally balanced rotation.
