HOUSTON - Westfield went through the gauntlet.

The Mustangs were tested every step of the way in the 2021 VYPE Holiday Invitational presented by Whataburger. Westfield, which improved to 15-1 overall on the season, had to battle through Fort Bend Elkins, The Woodlands Christian Academy and finally Atascocita to win the two-day tournament.

"It's sweet," Westfield coach Bill Goffney said. "It's a testament to my guys. We played Atascocita early in the season and they got us at their place. It was personal, that was our only loss of the season, so we needed to avenge that, so the guys came out with a little more fire and intensity.

"It's big-time momentum. We just looked at the bracket and I told them it's a great week when you can knock down two Top 10 teams in a couple days stretch. So, that propels us into district."
