The stars of 2025-26 Cypress Springs Girls Basketball & HC Taneisha Rogers
THE LAYUP LINE: No. 3 Cy Springs has no intention of slowing down in 2026
No. 3 -- CYPRESS SPRINGS PANTHERS
After a 30-win season and a run to the 6A-D2 Region II Final, Cypress Springs finds itself in reload mode — not rebuild.
The Panthers lost standout Ayla McDowell to South Carolina and Jemini Mitchell to Legion Prep Academy in Dallas, but the program’s standard under 12th-year head coach Taneisha Rogers remains the same: win and advance.
Only one starter returns from that deep playoff team, yet Cy Springs is far from starting over. Floor general Tamiah Harrison and sharpshooter Nevaeh Smith bring stability to the backcourt, while Madison Madkins, Milan Barnes, and Daija Barrow are primed to carve out larger roles as the Panthers chase a seventh straight postseason berth.
And then there’s Makenzie Jackson — a Class of 2029 phenom whose size, skill, and poise have already made her a name to know in Houston basketball circles. The future isn’t just bright; it’s already walking the halls at Cy Springs.

The stars of 2025-26 Cypress Falls Girls Basketball
THE LAYUP LINE: No. 12 Cy Falls Eagles
No. 12 -- CYPRESS FALLS GOLDEN EAGLES
After a 12-year District Championship drought, Cy Falls made a statement in 2025, going 28-6 overall and 13-1 in district play.
Coach Larissa Leal – now in Year No. 4 – guided the team to the Regional Semifinals and now looks to carry that winning mentality into this year’s outing.
Once again, the Golden Eagles will be headlined by TGCA All-State selection and 17-6A Co-MVP Dazlyn McClenon, who averaged 15 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 steals per contest last season. Giselle Jackson – also a TGCA All-State pick and first-team, all-district honoree – piles onto the production, after posting some exceptional stats (14 ppg, 3 apg, 3 spg).
Andrea Vital (second-team) is another player to consider, as the roster prepares to maintain its competitive edge.
“Keys to this season are establishing leadership early, using preseason and early games to develop depth quickly, and playing to our strengths,” Leal said.
With returning talent and a championship mindset, Cypress Falls is ready to go “All In” in 25-26, aiming to defend its district crown and expand on their postseason success.
