The team was rewarded with some all-district accolades. First-team, all-district picks included Texas A&M-signee Remington Strickland, who earned first-team honors for both defensive and offensive line. David Kasemervisz, a Stanford preferred walk-on signee, was named first-team at linebacker and as an athlete on offense. Solomon Cole was a first-team defensive back and receiver, while JD Migl was named a first-teamer at running back for the Eagles. </p>Drake Martinez - St. Thomas Football

The 6-foot-5, 285-pound lineman is a nice get for the Generals. He is an Eagle Scout and also scored a 34 on his ACT. On the field he is a force. Holstead can fill the gap nicely, has a lot of strength to push around opposing defensive lineman and can get out in the open and block well. He has a lot of raw talent. </p>Donovan Jackson - Episcopal

VYPE Football 2020 Preview: All-VYPE Private School Team
Sep 23, 2020
Welcome to the 2020 football season. What a weird offseason it was for everyone. There was not a summer camp circuit for players to go showcase their talents at. In-person recruiting came to a screeching halt and the COVID-19 Pandemic has affected everyone.
But VYPE has still done what we have always done when it comes to previewing Texas high school football here in Houston. With that said here is the 2020 All-VYPE Private School Team!
