WINTER IS COMING: The Playmakers powered by UTMB Health
The South Houston area is loaded with talented athletes who give it their all in their respective fields of play.
Welcome to the VYPE Playmakers, powered by UTMB Health, where we highlight five standouts who will light up the scoreboard this Spring. Here are the UTMB Athletes of the Month.
Kamryn McLaurin -- Clear Brook

Bradley Collier (Vype)
Sophomore Kamryn McLaurin leads her team in scoring with 12 points per game. After becoming bi-district champs last year, the young star seeks to push her team further in the upcoming postseason. She is one of the toughest defenders in the city.
Jamari McDowell -- Manvel

Bradley Collier (Vype)
This 6-foot-5 senior guard has been playing lights out for Manvel of the past few seasons, leading to his commitment to play for Kansas for his college career. However, McDowell will look to lead his team to a playoff berth in the second half of the season before he graduates. McDowell is also stellar in the classroom.
Maddy Kincaide -- Alvin

Bradley Collier (Vype)
Kincaide, a 5-foot-6 junior shooting guard, anticipates being one of the leaders on the team and helping the Yellowjackets turn their season around in their district matchups. She returns as a first-team, all-district selection in 2022.
Brooke Spinks -- Friendswood

After advancing to the Regional Finals last season, the Mustangs will look to senior forward Brooke Spinks to be a staple on a loaded Friendswood roster. The all-district selection a year ago scored 10 goals.
Daniel Blanco -- Dobie

A standout defender in last year’s district championship team, Blanco is going to be a force to be reckoned with in the Longhorns’ backfield this Spring. After becoming a first-team, all-district selection, this senior anticipates a postseason return.
Pearland Standout and UNC commit, RyLee Grays

The South Houston area is loaded with talented athletes, who give it their all on their respective fields of play.
Welcome to the VYPE Playmakers, powered by UTMB Health, where we highlight five standouts who will light up the scoreboard this winter on the court. Here are the UTMB Athletes of the Month.
Orlando Horton Jr.--Clear Falls

Bradley Collier (VYPE)
One of south Houston’s top talents, Horton will be in the running for District MVP, and could easily reach 1,000 points this season. The young Clear Falls product has become adept at being aggressive to the rim and having a deft shooting touch..
Rezia Castillo--Clear Brook

Bradley Collier (VYPE)
The sophomore point guard was the District 24-6A MVP in her freshman year and hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. Castillo's peers and coaches acknowledge that she is amazing in the classroom and the weight room, which transfers onto the court, as the young guard can shoot, pass and score in transition.
Qasim Boyd--Dickinson

Bradley Collier (VYPE)
Boyd has proven himself to be one of Houston's most improved players. He’s a tough shot-taker and tough shot-maker and is a skilled combo-guard, who lets the game come to him.
Gwendyln McGrew--Pasadena Memorial

Bradley Collier (VYPE)
Coming off an ACL injury, McGrew is hungry to get back on the court. The 5-foot-10 guard could be one of the breakout stars in H-Town. The junior is already starting to get D1 college offers.
Rylee Grays--Pearland

Bradley Collier (VYPE)
The Oilers fell to Summer Creek in the Regional Finals last season and look to battle for a spot in the State Final Four in 2023 as Rylee Grays returns for her senior year. Grays is a UNC signee and a rare talent in the post, who can shoot and play in the paint.
