BIRDS OF PREY: Argyle pursuing first 5A State Title, seventh overall
The Argyle girls basketball program stands as one of the most consistent and successful teams in the history of the UIL.
Since the school’s founding in 1999, the Eagles have become a model of excellence, reaching the State Tournament 10 times and claiming six state championships—2006 in 2A, and a dominant stretch from 2015 to 2019 in 4A.
Their impressive legacy speaks to the strong culture and tradition that has been built over the years, with the team’s reputation growing as they ascend through classifications.
Argyle's move to Class 5A in the 2022-23 season brought with it tougher competition, but the Eagles didn’t miss a beat.
In their first year in 5A, they finished with an impressive 31-4 record, advancing to the Area Finals. In the following season, they maintained that high level of play, going 34-5 and making it to the Regional Semifinals.
The 2024-25 campaign has been no different, with the seventh-year head coach Chance Westmoreland and co. currently holding a record of 27-4, securing them a spot in the DFW Top-10.
Argyle’s path to success this season has been paved by several key victories, including dominant wins over tough opponents such as Flour Bluff (59-26), Westlake (42-30), and 4A powerhouse Glen Rose (49-42).
However, perhaps the most pivotal victory came earlier this month against Denton Ryan (55-39), which solidified Argyle’s position at the top of District 6-5A with an undefeated 8-0 record.
This year’s team features a talented roster, with several standout players making significant contributions.
Sophomore Wrigley Green, a versatile combo guard, has quickly emerged as a leader on the court. After earning a second-team, all-district nod last season, Green’s ability to impact both ends of the floor has been invaluable to Argyle’s success.
She is joined by senior guard/forward Kennedy Hafer, a Lehigh commit, and junior forward Brooklynn Northeim, both of whom consistently produce on offense and defense.
Veteran players like senior Zoe Jackson, junior McKenzie Napier, as well as sophomores Kensley Vest and Landry Murphy round out the talented squad, all of whom are poised for a deep playoff run.
Argyle’s recent success includes a trip to the State Tournament in 2022, where they were still in 4A.
With only a few district games left to play, the Eagles are well on their way to adding another remarkable chapter to their already impeccable history, with high hopes for a strong postseason run.
THE STATUS: VYPE DFW Girls Basketball Rankings with district titles on the line; SGP, D'Ville elevate
As we pass the midpoint of district play, the race for respective playoff seeding across the state has reached its pinnacle.
However, in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, the battle for supremacy seems especially tight, with margins between teams growing ever smaller. It’s no surprise, given that this region has long been home to some of the finest high school girls’ basketball programs in the state.
In our updated composite rankings, Boswell remains in the top spot. The Pioneers are perfect in district play (8-0) and sport an impressive 28-2 overall record, firmly establishing themselves as a powerhouse.
Right behind them is Denton Guyer, with a 24-3 record and a 7-1 mark in district. The Wildcats have the distinction of being the only team in Texas to have defeated Boswell this season, taking down the Pioneers 54-51 on December 3.
The District 5-6A race, however, remains far from decided, as Braswell and Flower Mound are right on Guyer’s heels, setting the stage for an enticing photo finish.
Meanwhile, defending UIL-6A State Champions, Duncanville, are finding their stride as the season progresses. With a solid 20-5 record, they’re well on their way to securing yet another District 11-6A title.
South Grand Prairie, last year’s 6A runners-up, are also back on track, sporting a 21-6 record and an undefeated 8-0 district mark, signaling their intent for another deep postseason run.
In addition, Argyle and Wakeland continue to lead the charge in Class 5A, while Lincoln and Glen Rose remain formidable forces in 4A.
With the stakes higher than ever, it’s a thrilling time for DFW girls high school hoops. Check out our full rankings for all the latest movements and what’s at stake as the postseason approaches.
