THE TIER LIST: Will State Baseball run though H-Town? Final Rankings; Brackets
With May around the corner, playoff season has officially arrived in the realm of Texas high school baseball.
District races are in the books, divisions are set, and the path to Dell Diamond in June is clear—with plenty of gold on the line.
In the Houston area, The Woodlands (27-4-1) turned heads with an undefeated run through District 13-6A—no small feat given the talent level in that region.
Memorial (25-3-1) has enjoyed a dominant spring and enters the playoffs as our No. 2-ranked squad, poised for a deep run.
Kingwood also remains one of the top programs heading into the opening round. The Mustangs (28-3) shared the District 23-6A title with Atascocita (22-9-2), though the two won’t cross paths in the postseason due to divisional alignment.
Defending UIL 6A state champion Tomball (24-6-1) remains a threat, anchored by one of the deepest bullpens in the state, while Cy Ranch continues its surge into the Top 10.
Also worth watching are Barbers Hill, Katy, Bridgeland, Pearland, and Kingwood Park—all capable of making serious noise in their respective brackets.
In the Private School ranks, Lutheran South Academy and Second Baptist may be on a collision course in TAPPS-DII, while Concordia Lutheran and St. Thomas headline TAPPS-DI. Over in SPC-4A, Kinkaid and Episcopal look like early favorites.
Suffice it to say, Houston is loaded with playoff-caliber talent—and the next few weeks should put that on full display.

Some of the stars of 2024-25 Tomball Baseball
THE TIER LIST: Updated VYPE HOU Baseball Rankings; Kingwood, Tomball, Memorial, BH thriving
Just like that, we've already reached the first wave of district games in the Texas high school baseball season.
Suffice it to say, there have been numerous developments made thus far, which also entails some movement in our overall rankings.
Kingwood has skyrocketed since the preseason, as the Mustangs are now 19-1 on the year and show no signs of slowing down.
Trailing just behind are the Tomball Cougars, who still remain one of the city's most intimidating clubs, with a loaded bullpen to back that notion, and the same can be said for Houston Memorial.
Similarly, The Woodlands has been on a hot-streak throughout the entire spring, particularly turning heads in the tournament section and have a firm grasp on the lead in District 13-6A.
Don't sleep on other 6A contenders like Katy, Pearland, and Bridgeland, either.
In Class 5A, Barbers Hill (17-3) has been balling, though Friendswood, Lake Creek, and Kingwood Park are starting to make some noise as well.
With all that in mind, here's a look at the new VYPE Baseball rankings as we near the mid-way point of district-play in H-Town.
