Antonian win the Houston Private School Classic
Antonian wins third-annual Houston Private School Classic over holidays
The Antonian Apaches are one of the top private schools in the state of Texas and showed why, winning the Houston Private School Classic last week.
The Houston Private School Classic is a three-day event hosted by Second Baptist School and St. Francis Episcopal.
“We were thrilled to be able to partner with SFE once again to put on the 3rd Annual Houston Private School Classic,” SBS athletic director Mike Walker said. “In 2020, we invited 12 schools and were just happy to have games for our athletes. Now, this event has grown to 24 varsity teams and 12 JV teams. So much thanks to Coach Mouton and his staff, Coach Harold Baber and his staff along with so many parent volunteers and staff members. This field was really competitive this year and we had some great games.”
The Apaches knocked off Second Baptist School in the gold bracket finals to take the trophy. St. Thomas Episcopal won the silver bracket over Fort Bend Christian Academy, while Trinity Christian Academy on Tennessee beat Cypress Christian to win the bronze bracket.

TIME TO HOOP: The VYPE Holiday Invitational powered by the Daspit Law Firm
The 2022 VYPE Holiday Invitational powered by the Daspit Law Firm tips off Thursday morning as a dozen Houston-area teams do battle for the coveted championship.
“This year’s lineup is loaded with talent and every team participating should qualify for playoffs,” VYPE’s CRO and tournament director Derek Dusek said. “We are thankful for our partnership with Aldine ISD and the support from our sponsors (Daspit Law Firm, Whataburger, Grind Basketball and Freddy’s).”
The two-day event will start off at Aldine Davis High School for pool play running on two courts with games starting from 9 am to 4:30 pm. Friday’s games will be at the M.O. Campbell Center – one of the crown jewels of Houston-area basketball arenas.
Some of the headliners include VYPE Top 5 Public School Teams Dawson and Booker T. Washington and No. 1 Private School Squad Houston Christian.
The Dickinson Gators are a Top 15 team and play a fast brand of basketball. FB Bush has won a State Title (2010) and Klein Forest (2019) was in the Finals over the past five years.
TWCA has won seven TAPPS titles – most recently in 2021 and 2020, and Stratford is led by Rice-signee Keanu Dawes, who starred in last year’s event.
A special thanks goes out to the Daspit Law Firm for sponsoring the third-annual event.
