THE RECAP: 2025 UIL Tennis State Tournament Results; RR Westwood excels, Kempner's Do captures 4th Title
SAN ANTONIO — The UIL Tennis State Tournament concluded Friday at the Northside Tennis Center, capping off another thrilling year of high school competition with standout performances across the board—particularly from Round Rock Westwood and Fort Bend Kempner.
In 6A boys singles, Round Rock Westwood’s Sibi Raja claimed the state title with a straight-set win (6-2, 6-3) over Austin Westlake’s Lucas Riezebeek. Raja, a senior committed to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps, closed out his high school career in dominant fashion.
Westwood continued its winning ways in boys doubles as brothers Daniel and Devon Zhang battled through three sets (6-4, 3-6, 6-3) to defeat Southlake Carroll’s Andrew Whitehead and Danil Kazakov. It marked Daniel’s second consecutive state title after winning last year with Leon Chen.
On the girls side, Tompkins’ Ananya Sriniketh, also heading to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps, rallied to defeat Coppell’s Alexandra Patton in a three-set comeback (4-6, 7-5, 6-3) and secure the 6A girls singles crown.
In 6A girls doubles, Westwood added another title to its tally. Anwitha Duduka and Janya Tellabati earned a straight-set victory (7-5, 6-3) over Plano West’s Emma Thoms and June Kim. Duduka, who was runner-up last year with a different partner, clinched the title this time with Tellabati.
Fort Bend Clements made its mark in 6A mixed doubles as Gabriel Segubiense and Jastine Escamos powered past El Paso Franklin’s Kendall Olivas and Ayden Fraire (6-4, 6-3). Segubiense, who finished second in 2024 with a different partner, completed his redemption run with the win.
In 5A boys singles, Fort Bend Kempner’s Noey Do etched his name into the history books, winning his fourth consecutive state championship. The Rice-bound senior capped off a remarkable high school career with another dominant showing.
Other 5A champions included Walnut Grove’s Matteo Mejia and Blake Anderson in boys doubles, and Abilene Wylie’s Hope Willis in girls singles. Grapevine’s Sara and Emilia Gyorgy captured their second straight girls doubles title, continuing a family legacy of excellence. Frisco Lebanon Trail’s Aaditt Rishi and Addison Rosser claimed the 5A mixed doubles title.
With multiple repeat champions, sibling duos, and dramatic matches, this year’s UIL State Tournament served as a showcase of Texas tennis talent—and a fitting finale to the 2025 season.

THE TIER LIST: VYPE DFW Preseason Baseball Rankings; Grapevine, FMHS among early favorites
Despite what the weather might suggest, the spring edition of the UIL calendar has officially arrived, marking the midpoint of February.
With fans heading back to the ballpark, a new season of intrigue begins, and the race to Dell Diamond is underway.
In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, our early predictions favor the Grapevine Mustangs. Coming off a historic season in which they secured their second UIL-5A State Championship (the first since 2016), Grapevine enters 2025 with high expectations.
Just behind them are the Lucas Lovejoy Leopards, who made program history last spring by reaching the 5A Final for the first time in their 18-year existence. With a roster loaded with returning talent, Lovejoy is poised to make another deep postseason run.
Flower Mound, aiming for a third consecutive State Tournament appearance, is another contender to watch. Meanwhile, Rockwall-Heath (2021 State Champions) and Southlake Carroll (2022) are eager to reclaim their respective titles.
In addition, programs like Argyle, Boswell, and Rockwall round out the list of preseason heavyweights.
As we look ahead to another thrilling season on the diamond, here are VYPE’s top teams to watch as the 2025 season begins.
