Jan 26, 2021
Chomp... chomp.
The Dickinson Gators knocked off Clear Brook 40-36 to remain in second place in District 24-6A play last week. The two face each other this up coming week as the playoff crystal ball comes in clearer focus.

A Real Threatt: FB Dulles junior piecing together a solid year
Jan 26, 2021
HOUSTON - In the world of girls basketball in Houston, all the talk usually surrounds Cypress Creek.
Rightfully so as the program played for a state title last year and has a pair of Texas signees running one of the best backcourts in possibly the state.
But don't sleep on Fort Bend Dulles or Nya Threatt.
<p>Almost quietly, the Vikings have rolled to a perfect 20-0 record. They have outscored teams by a remarkable 1,346 to 725. Their season-high in points is 95. The second-most is 84. </p><p>A big factor in the success of the Vikings has been the play of 2022 prospect Nya Threatt, who has also almost quietly averaged 20.4 points per game and registered point No. 1,000 of her career on January 16. </p><p>"The difference from last year to this year to me is I have been more aggressive on offense and defense," Threatt said. "As a junior, I don't have much time left so this season had to be a big season for me to get my name out there to get noticed by college coaches." </p><div class="rm-embed embed-media"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><a href="https://twitter.com/Nya_T08?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Nya_T08</a> Scores her 1000 point from half court!!!

</script></p><p>Outside of the obvious uptick in scoring, which has increased by eight points per game since her sophomore campaign, she has also improved in other parts of her game that don't involve on-the-court athletic skill. </p><p>"I have improved on my leadership and being more vocal as an upperclassman," Threatt said. </p><p>As far as the unblemished record? </p><p>"As a team, we recognize being 20-0 is a big accomplishment but we try not to focus on that too much," she added. "We just continue to put in hard work to get better." </p><p>Outside of playing basketball, Threatt enjoys spending time with family and friends and hopes to one day attend LSU. But just like her favorite hype song, the season is not over for Threatt yet and she still has "Sum 2 Prove". </p><div class="rm-embed embed-media"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Congratulations ♥️ <a href="https://twitter.com/Nya_T08?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Nya_T08</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/1000pts?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#1000pts</a> <a href="https://t.co/FG0d5cOLvg">pic.twitter.com/FG0d5cOLvg</a><br>— Nariah🧸 (@nariahx) <a href="https://twitter.com/nariahx/status/1350553599076691975?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 16, 2021</a></blockquote> <script async="" charset="utf-8" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></div>
